I highly agree with Mr. Laureano on this topic. Tension in the throat is a complicated issue to fix. I recently fixed this SAME issue in my playing and it SIGNIFICANTLY improved my range.
Seek a local teacher who can physically look at your set up and help you determine the best way to approach this issue. Greg Wing who teaches at Morehead State University in Kentucky is an expert on this very subject and can help you...as I'm sure others can too.
