My limited experience indicates that most Americans are far more comfortable
with parts provided in treble for treble instruments and bass clef for bass
instruments. The often-used convention of treble clef scores on one side of
the page, bass clef scores on the other (along with Eb/F on opposite sides
for the horns) as provided by some publishers (see, for instance the
Salvation Army: American Brass Ensemble Series (USA), or the Chester Music:
Just Brass series (GB)) takes care of everyone.  We certainly prefer that
format here in the Hudson Valley of New York State.
