I would greatly appreciate any advice out there on how to improve and increase my high register. Most of my playing is done in a British brass band, with occasional playing in a concert orchestra and small brass ensemble. My pedal, low and mid ranges are pretty strong, but I feel my high register is disproportionately weak. Concert Bb to Eb above the stave is there (just!) but the control just isn't there - quiet, lyrical, smooth playing is out of the question up there and as for attempting anything above Eb, it just doesn't happen at all. Any pointers?
