take more mouthpiece. what I mean by that is put more of the mouthpiece in ur mouth. Ive been playing for three years and last year and even sometimes this year I need to practice that note. Its a hard note to get out. Practice like this go g then an e than a d# or d than go to low c it`s easier to get out because your mouth is already on that part of the mouthpiece. do these cuple notes everytime u play and u will get it out. instead of doing that set of notes just go form high notes to low until u reach the c.

best way to get low notes out is to start on low b flat and try an dget the note to speak as quietly as possible and practice long tones in the low end of the horn like this. best way to start a practice seesion at home, helps to stretch out your chops.
