I've been having problems getting higher than a top C on Cornet (2 ledger lines up). I can play anything upto and including the C confidently and without straining, but it just feels like there's barrier at the C that means I can't get any higher! On good days I can squeeze out a C# but D is a no go area (actually I lie, I've got it once!)
I have been trying for yonks and I'm not making any progress, it's not a major problem as Ds aren't called for much in a 4th sect band, but it's just something that niggles at me as it's only a semitone up from a C#, and all that comes out when I try to play it is air! I'm playing on a DW 4, this shouldn't stop me from getting it should it?
Has anyone got any suggestions, or any good exercises that might help?
Thanks,
