• Answer:

  Presuming you are using the correct fingering ,the throat is your answer. Try to open it by imagining you are yawning , take in just a bit more mouthpiece.. Don't blow so hard . The too high notes you are getting are overtones which will eventually add to your range when you control them.Try using them to practice your high notes . Like-----play a high d , then go for the upper harmonic--then back to d --thern the harmonic.etc. { by the way b# is c )
