Dave W. (#4) speaks the truth. I can make the multi-valve notes just above pedal Bb sound, but I have to set my chops and breath support in order to do it (Dolce, and previously an Elite). Fortunately, those notes are rarely used, and not at all (in my limited experience) in fast passages. I do play them a lot, but only in warmups and scales.
