Here you go. All the altissimo fingerings I need to learn are at the URL below. (That is after I fix my embouchure and breathing technique, or lack there of...)

Sorry, honey. There aren`t fingerings for notes above that, and if there were you certainly wouldn`t want to hear their pitches. And I don`t think it would be physically possible for a human to hear them. Those ARE the fingerings for notes 10 ledger lines above the staff.

Did you actually looked at the charts at the URL I sent? These are fingering for the "4th Octave." As you cuold see, there is a "8va" on the notation left to the fingering chart. By the way, people who contributed the fingerings are many of the very best flutists there are. Like Robert Dick, who in my mind is absolutely the best among any flutists.

Hey, by the way, the "flute God" Robert Dick now has his own web site!!! http://robertdick.net
YOU MUST CHECK OUT THE VIDEO ONLINE!!! Especially the one titled "Piece in Gamelan Style"!!!
He does "multiphonics" with 3 notes simultaneously!!! 2 note multiphonics are all over. Whisper tone and all the other techniques one would think are impossible. (You`d better have DSL or Cable though)
