this notation has limitations, doesn't it, can't identify half-hole just rolled open or lifted up
so are you playing this as Basic High Db with half hole UP ... or are you actually only rolled open?
ditto question for High Eb
gosh, how important reeds are to get those high notes in pitch!
I've got several reeds that play very nicely mid register in neutral embouchure, but start misbehaving an octave up, such as one sags upper, but does altissimo notes pretty much spot on; another is sharp upper and sharper on highs, and another is good upper register generally but balks for low D & C, it does high very very easily, yet it's almost a whole tone too ... flat!
oh ... well, there it is
