I recently got an 80xxx Superba I tenor, and find that many of my familiar altissimo fingerings (G, G#, A)are flat on the Couf. Can any of you with more time on your Coufs offer up your favorite altissimo fingerings for this horn? thanks

For G try Front F and side Bb, for G# left hand 123 and right hand side C,
For A try left hand 23 and right hand 23, all with octave key.These work on sx90r for me

Try these too: (I play an SX90)

For G- I do it the same as Tex but I declare it the most evil note on a Keilwerth. I had to learn a new embouchure just for that note.

For G#- LH 1 3/ RH side C

For A- LH 2 3/ RH side C

For A#- LH 3/ RH side C

...B- add D palm

...C- add Eb palm

...C#- add E palm

...D- add F palm or just front F by itself

...D#- RH 1 3 (works great)

...E- D palm key

...F- add Eb palm

...F#- add E palm

...G- add F palm

That's G4...as high as I know how to play right now (or want to).

Hope this helps.
