That's a pretty good high range. You never need anything above a "super"(also called "double") Bb, a whole step below the C you're talking about. I can get the C an octave higher than you're talking about on a good day, and so far, it has done me no good whatsoever. I've won a few "high note" competitions against trombone players, and I ripped a tripple C at the end of an improv solo one time in jazz band...but never anything that wasn't just showing off. I say work on having a more consistent and better high register on the notes you can already play :)
