SunnyDaze - I was just checking reeds for a rehearsal tonight and for kicks, tried to 'squeak' the long 'B'. I got an 'A' an octave plus above the staff by biting a bit. The side muscles, like whistling, are very important in a clarinet embouchure. It will help the muscles learn by lifting the top teeth off the mouthpiece a bit and let the side muscles do more work.
