Does anyone here know where can I find a fingering chart above the High G, which from the middle C 2 more octave higher from that. If anyone know please tell me, coz I'm playing those stuff getting higher and higher and I can't get where I can learn those fingerings. THX!!!

When you do play the higher notes, experiment with lots of different fingerings. You'll need fingerings that are easy to reach (for those fast passage moments) and fingerings that have excellent tuning (for those long note moments). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Thats the same one I use, there are many different alternatives on it! Some work, and some don't , but as long as you end up with the right pitch.. Embouchure is important too - for example, I use the same fingering for F as I do for A, but different harmonics.

I have fingerings for up to F above C shown on that chart, I can't get above Eb though no matter how much I change my embouchure and thats with a 3.5 reed on! The official advice was "bottom teeth on reed" for notes above top C but it's still a struggle
