Re: Flat altissimo

Hang on! I'm really confused about what this is about.

Ed mentioned high B and C - I don't see where the original poster was that specific. I assumed he meant altissimo to mean everything above 2-leger-line high C (C6).

Then William started writing about problems with E7, which, using the key (C4="middle" C) at the top of this window, is a note I don't even know how to play [E7]

. I assumed Mikeyarbulu was talking about the notes starting with D (or C#)6 [D6]

.

And Bob suggested thick blank reeds. I thought Rue lepic (cited in OP's equipment list) _is_ a thick blank. The ones I have in my reed case aren't as thick as V12s, but they're considerably thicker that the traditional (blue box) Vandoren reeds I have.

Can we clarify all of this? Thanks to all.

Karl
