The only time you should need to really "blast" a note that high is at the end of Symphonia Domestica if Sawallisch is conducting.

When I try to blast in this range the note would not hold for more then a second - the strong and fast air stream would simply split the small aperture needed. What do you you do when you want to blast in notes above high C?
