If you have access to a descant horn it will make your life a lot easier! Otherwise, if the arepeggio is slow, perhaps you could fake it and sing the note? I once sang an A below your D for 12 counts at fortissimo during a concert. I had a lot more to play after that. For all the effort of screaming a high A, there was absolutely no musical reward, so I saved myself. Afterwards, my buddy goes: "Nice A!". He laughed pretty hard when I told him I sang it!
