Thanks Annie re gliss. Actually, I was referring to the glisses in the 3
preludes by Gershwin (trans. piano) which go into the altissimo range. Not
that I can do Rhapsody in Blue either!

Simply gliss as far as the high c (right above the staff) pitch and then pop
your fingers back to a 4th-space e-flat fingering, which with an open enough
sound will fairly closely match the pitch. Then just slide up as far as you
need to in 5th partials instead of 3rd partials.

Happy sliding!
Chuck
