Just to the right of this site's name, The Clarinet BBoard, is a little graphic showing C4, which is the first line below the staff.

E5, the 4th space of the staff, is not a "high note". It's part of the clarion register, which usually seems to be defined as going from B4 - C6 (2nd line above the staff).

The altissimo register, depending on who you ask, runs from roughly C#6 to C7 (6th space above the staff).

Did you mean E6? If so, then your mention of the D above would mean D7, and that's confusing, at least to me. Also, you refer to concert pitches B and E, which may mean you're reading off a tuner that references concert pitch, but that switch of reference is also confusing here, and it's compounded by your apparently playing an E and getting those two readings a fourth apart. So, a little clarification might help people better respond.
