At our rehearsal on Saturday someone helped me find which pad was the problem, it was a pad on the lower joint that is controlled by the right hand middle finger, to play a clarion E. Ken Shaw was exactly right with his first suggestion in the list.
When I got home yesterday I looked at it, and all that was wrong was that the screw that holds the rod that key is mounted to in had backed out so far that under the tension of the spring the whole rod had been pushed off to one side slightly. I tightened this back up, and suddenly there was no longer any problem playing. I was really relieved, and at today's rehearsal I was able to play the contra alto, and thankfully it was only my playing that was a problem.
Thanks for the help
