Hi,
At 4'02" of the following video, she used D6, C6, C6, A#6. I can paly altissimo D6 and C6 without problems.

However, I just cannot play A#6 with any fingerings in the following chart:

Can someone please give it a try and let me know the working fingering for A#6?

I hear concert A# (Bb) in that clip, which is G on alto (the Eb alto sax is a transposing instrument) and not on the page you posted. Like all fingering charts, the fingerings are in sax key, not concert key. So that G is on the lower altissimo page. My go to G fingering on alto is the first one, T 1-3|--3
