 High notes.

Hello Everyone!

I need some help with fingerings. I can today go up to E-flat 4 (the one on the 6th ledger line) with any major effort.
But I want to go even higher and can't find any fingering charts that goes higher. Maybe you guys could give me some fingerings to get up even higher.
Of course could I sit down and experiment. And experiment...
But why invite wheel again when someone already did it?

Or do you guys just owerblow everything?

Thanks for the help and excuse me for my bad english, I'm swedish...

I can't find my copy right now but am almost certain that the Clarinet book published by Oxford University Press has a chapter on extreme high altissimo fingerings

Kalmen Opperman has a book titled "The New Extended Working Range for Clarinet" that gives many fingerings for notes up to altissimo superieur G (an octave above 4 ledger line g)
