hi,
can anyone help me how to get fine intonation on the high notes of the E-flat soprano clarinet(or sopranino, whatever) especially E5 and above (everything goes right till D#5) considering the MIDI Octave Designation Systems (http://www.music.vt.edu/musicdictionary/appendix/octaveregisters/octaveregisters.html)?? This notes sound flat, nearly 1/4 of tone lower or even more. Can it be from my enbouchure?! If so, what can i do.
Some fingerins or tricks will be helpful.

I`ve been playing B-flat soprano clarinet for more than 20 years, but now someone asked me to play the E-flat clarinet in some solos. Cincerly i can tell all clarinetists that is not a "flatter" job to give someone you care about

Thanks in advance (and if my experience can help anyone please make me know)

I`ve nevered played the Eb clarinet, but what you should do is ask at woodwind.org, or, go there, get the email address of Aussie Nick (in his profile) and ask him. He plays the Eb clarinet, and he is good at it.

Hi Rachel,
i appreciate your concern but the only answer i get from Aussie Nick was this one: "Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)"

Any Suggestions?
I`ll be grateful.
Thanks anyway

Post on the woodwind.org forum. You should get replies, and if Nick is still following the posts, he should reply.
