Hi Sergio,

Have you looked at the 'Soloist's Companion' books by Wright and 
Round Ltd., Gloucester, England? This is in two slim volumes, each 
with around ten solos. Most of these would probably be suitable but I 
would especially suggest 'The Nightingale' from Volume 2. this has 
some triple tonguing in it but not too much and it is not 
particularly difficult to make it sound good.
