I was able to solve the squeaking between register changes by maintaining the
same tongue position throughout all registers. I use the high tongue or
"heee" position...lately experimenting with "peu" which is a little less
"tight." Practice long tones by 5ths, concentrating on this high tongue
position throughout, but especially in the clarion-altissimo leaps. I hope
this works for you, too. My thanks goes to my graduate clarinet teacher,
Maurita Murphy Mead, U of Iowa for teaching me this. Good Luck!
