When I play the middle B sometimes it plays the G above the staff. It doesn't do it when I first start playing but after I have been playing for a while? Is this related to moisture? I have trouble with the C too. It doesn't want to play.

i ve never had any experience with that- i mean, ive had notes that i couldnt seem to get right, but it wasnt exactly what u were describing. the only thing i can think of that might be causing it is that as ur lips get tired, your embouchre changes and/or lossens and makes the note jump to a different sound from what u want. try practicing for shorter periods and more frequently to build up ur embouchre so it will stay steady and u can get a good, firm, intonation without any slip-ups on the C's and B's.

its because your over blowing the note, probably your emboucher is too tight, my teacher made me try to get to the G from that B, was kinda hard because I was used to just playing the B

I think that Tia has the right idea. When your embouchure is too tight you have to tendency to overblow your notes to make them come out. In this case, when you have all of your fingers down to play the B the overblowing can cause this little "squeal" to occur. I would suggest loosening the embouchure and opening the throat a little more. What size reeds are you currently using?

I'm beginning to think it's my fingers not covering the holes because if I play those notes carfully making sure the hole are covered I don't have this problem. However if I'm playing somthing and not concentrating on finger placement I get sloppy and then the problem. It only happens on the the long B and C though.
