1. Place your left-hand fingers on the following keys:
- Index finger: Open
- Middle finger: Open
- Ring finger: G# key
- Pinky finger: Key next to G# key (This key will vary depending on your flute)
2. Place your right-hand fingers on the following keys:
- Index finger: B key
- Middle finger: C key
3. Blow air across the embouchure hole while maintaining the correct fingerings.
4. Adjust your embouchure and air pressure until you produce a clear and in-tune C octave.
Here are some additional tips for playing the C octave above middle C:
- Keep your embouchure firm and focused, with a small aperture.
- Direct the air stream across the embouchure hole at a slight downward angle.
- Experiment with different amounts of air pressure until you find the right balance for producing a clear and resonant tone.
- Practice regularly to develop your technique and control in the upper register of the flute.
