Just to restate my central question- is ANYONE regularly (in public performance or other demanding "play it now" settings) playing these high notes? If so- do you have a protocol that allows you to KNOW they will play when you need them? ...whether 5 min or 30 min after you got set up? ...and whether you're playing for 5 min or 30 min?

I can always set up to make them play. But I can't depend on them lasting.

Or did any of you ever give up on this?

A related question would be whether you know of any players whose public performances regularly contain these notes? I confess I haven't gone looking for them. The Pete Fountain recordings I've studied stop at the high Bb. Makes me wonder if that was a deliberate choice he made for reliability reasons. And I read about Benny Goodman's famous high C in Carnegie Hall, but I take it that that was unusual even for him. Somewhere on this board I think I read he asked an arranger NOT to include that note since it was not dependable (anybody else seen that? where was it?).
