Acoustically, higher pitches vibrate higher up the tube. Like Paul said, the mouthpiece area is too large, but not by much. If the length seems appropriate, line the bore with scotch tape as a test.
I slightly disagree with nellsonic, in that the altissimo should play with the softest reeds if all else, embouchure, air, mouthpiece facing, correct amount of mouthpiece in, etc, are good.
