Hi Cooper -- "Ouch" was the operative word for that 444 rehearsal. And the tone and ability to create much in the way of nuance suffered with the added embouchure strain. For the concert I had a sharper reed.
Chris P might be correct in suggesting the longer scrape American reeds are not very flexible with respect to raising the pitch. Of my reeds, the ones which are more flexible suffer from lack of stability. For a sharper reed I generally use a shorter staple (or file down the cork end of the staple if I want to considerably sharpen an existing reed).
