What make of cor have you got?
Try a Howarth 2BM or similar to start with.

Crooks make an amazing difference. Try every one you can get your hands on. eventually you will find the magic one that makes your cor sit up and shine...

If, while decrescendoing on the 3rd space C, the pitch dips, then the bocal is felt to have a problem. Unless it is otherwise perfect, you might want to try another one. Regards.
