Pitch in the first of Stravinsky's 3 pieces

It just occured to me while practicing the 1st piece. Because it's so soft, everything is quite sharp- and not consistantly as the notes near the mouthpiece change differently than the notes far from the mouthpiece.
Does anyone else see this as a problem? Should we try to play in tune with lots of covering of the lower holes? Should we play louder to bring the pitch down? Should we "lip it" with an in-tune but airy tone?
Thoughts...
