 Re: Squeak on moving from open G up to high E

You needn't change embouchure at all for this interval, and probably shouldn't. Play the E6 first, with an embouchure that allows the note to start well with a good sound, then slur to the C4 without changing anything. If that works well - and if there's no problem with the instrument - then that same embouchure will work in the other direction, C to E.

Another thing to practice. Play the C4, then using voicing alone produce the G5 a 12th higher, without changing the fingering or the embouchure. Then with the same fingering produce the E6, again by voicing alone. You can proceed further, to A6 etc. Work this up and down, and also the similar progressions starting on B4, A4, etc. You'll become aware of how voicing works, as separate from embouchure.

You needn't change embouchure anywhere in the normal range of the clarinet for normal tone production. Deliberate changes for reasons of intonation or tone quality are applied as needed, but you should have a general "set it and forget it" embouchure for nearly all of what you do.
