Tips for playing D♯5
Same fingering as D♯4/E♭4, one octave higher. Use faster, more focused air and aim it slightly higher. Start from the D fingering and add the D♯ key with your right pinky.
Higher notes come from your air, not from squeezing the keys. Keep your fingers relaxed, blow a faster, narrower stream of air and check your tuning with a tuner or a piano.
