What is the paper called that has the five lines for a staff? I want to say it's composers paper or something like that. But I'm not sure. Any ideas?

Also, can anyone help me with tuba fingerings for the twelve major scales for a beginners range?

I see some people have answered "staff paper", but I have always heard it referred to has "manuscript paper" or "music manuscript paper" in all my music theory and college courses.

As for the tuba fingerings: you didn't specify which type of fingerings needed. There are a few, so I will leave links to some examples under the Source section.

Actually, it's called both. Each line is called a staff, or if the two staffs are connected for Piano, the Grand Staff. Since the paper contains staves, it is called Staff Paper. It is also called manuscript paper however, so everybody is right. You already have links to tuba fingerings so I will just provide a few links to printable staff / manuscript paper.

By the way, it is also informally called music paper, as you'll see if you go through the links.

Actually, it's called staff paper. You were close! :)

If you go to Google Images and do a search for "staff paper," you'll find many images you can print out to have your own paper to compose or transpose on.

You might try YouTube for tuba fingerings. You might luck out and find a how-to video! That's one of the few instruments I never played.

It's called Manuscript Paper, which has nothing to do with novels and stories. It usually comes in a pack of 50 sheets, printed staffs on one side only.

The composer would do all the clefs, measures, and notation.
