Subject:  floaty high notes

Hi all!

I just bought a pretty piece of music...V williams, Silent Noon in the Key of F.

I was going through it and have sung it probably 10 times since yesterday. I
have noticed in this piece and in all my others that I am not able to produce a
floaty pianissimo high note. When I produce a lighter sounding note it sounds
more shrill and fragile than I would like. And the resonance is unpredictable.
To my mind the master of such notes is Renee Fleming...how does she do it?

Any tips? Breath support, placement, tension?????
