Hello I am writing a piece for 4 flutes. Each flute moves up in glissando patterns to create microcanons.
I was speaking to my tutor about this the other day and he said that simply going from a low not to a high note via glissando on flute is limited because of the fingerings.
My original plan was going from a low F to a high D sharp. with all the tonal and microtonal qualities in between. What is problematic about this? If I am starting from an F what is the highest note I can reach via glissando?
Thanks
