* When you first learn to tune the highest notes, use a drone like The Tuning CD to teach your ear.
Set the drone pitch for the key's tonic or for the note in question. With high G#, if you use the "long
fingering" shown above, it may be more secure in the hands, but need fast air to be in tune.
Also experiment with Bb side lever for stabilizing the flute for high G#.
***
*** For flutists without split-E on their flutes, if you need to descend
at fast tempi from high A to high E, experiment with aim, and possibly
with playing the high E raising right pinky finger (RH4)momentarily.
