I was in a 13 boy choir when I was young and during one of the rehearsals the teacher heard that my voice had broken, so he pulled me out of the choir and that was the end of my singing. There was no coaching to work through my broken voice. Now at 63 and retired I have decided to try again as I have been told I have a good singing voice but I’d like to fine tune it. Not too old I hope?

I’m convinced school choir teachers are some of the worst enemies of singing. As a woman and even as a girl, I have always had a very deep voice. I loved singing in middle school. First the teacher put me with the boys (most of whom had higher voices than mine). Then she said she wanted to organized the chorus with boys on one side and girls on the other. I didn’t fit so she yanked me out of chorus. Now at 66, I’m taking voice lessons. My teacher, who is classically trained, says if she’d gotten hold of me decades earlier, she could have made me an opera singer as I have the rarest of all female voices, a deep true Contralto (versus Mezzos who can dip down into lower notes) and huge lung capacity. Doesn’t matter, I’m having a blast learning and have, after only a few months, have expanded my range upward.

After watching my videos back I was always upset with how it didn't sound as good as I thought it did when performing in the moment. Now I know where to focus and how to develop around my prima voce.

The main difference is in the warmth/tone and comfort of my voice in the tenor range. but my mid and low is close to frank sinatra so I was told by my friend ''that sounded like Frank Sinatra'' lol. and have gone down to low c's and D,s and have a daily e/eb but thats not my comfortable singing range and with time, practice and training am fully comfortable in the tenor range. fact of the matter is everyone's voice is different, many assumed I was baritone or even possibly bass but my professional teacher who trains classical singers says can actually be a tenor and leans toward tenor for reasons listed above. edit 2.0 I will also add there may be sime difference between mine and Frank Sinatra of course, as mentioned everyone is different! But why would Frank Sinatra, commonly known as Baritone, sound like someone who is considered a tenor? thats why I use the term ''Baritenor'' because my voice is in between or has a lot of the qualities and abilities of both. The reason I say low tenor is the tone and comfort and warmth mentioned above. a young Frank Sinatra could be called a ''Lyric Baritone,'' or a higher baritone, while I may be a Low tenor and sometimes there can be less difference thansome think when singing in the same range. but I have more ease and change of tone in the higher pitches than him. while he can hit high notes, he still sounds like a baritone.

Your so right about individual voices. I trained as an Opera singer, then went on to do a degree in Jazz. When I was training my voice was categorised from A2-------D6 although I have a whistle register up to A6. My Prima Voce is E3-------D5. My voice type was categorised as Colouralto Contralto. Very rarely hear it much unless people are talking about singers like Annie Lennox, Cyndi Lauper, Tracey Chapmen or Toni Braxton.

@nextleveljourney6612 Several well known songwriters and Opera singers, like Monserat Cabali, remarked on her Contralto range. Although she falls into that bracket, she can also hit very high notes which are mezzo soprano. But her comfortable range is Contralto. Some of her work from the very early 80's, not the obvious stuff is more representative of Vocal range. Songs like "I'm gonna be strong". Been a fan of hers for over 38 years so have heard a LOT of her work. Lady Gaga has a great voice but I reserve judgement until her career has been as long as Cyndi's and she is still singing her songs in her 60's as well as she did in her 20's. People write her off so fast. Kind of funny really.

@vikkiflawith Hi, can you tell me if they are only considering the chest voice as the real range. The internet had so many different answers around this.
@vikkiflawith5 ай бұрын
@@INXS- The chest voice is only part of the voice. We have two resonating chambers, chest and head. The issue with many people is they don't understand vocal technique and do not know how to correctly transition between chest and head. With correct technique and practice this passage should become easy to negotiate and in the end the chest and head should feel like one voice. They have different qualities of timbre but a properly trained voice is a kind of 'blended' voice where the transition from low notes to high notes is easily done. Most people, with time and patience and good training, can increase their range. A singer is like an athlete- most of us can run for the bus but most of us can't win gold in running at the Olympics without good coaching and good form. So many of us can sing to some extent but without training our voice can't do everything it could possibly do. With training, the expanded range sounds normal and naturally done. We work very hard to make it sound easy :)
@INXS-5 ай бұрын
@vikkiflawith OK, what role does the range play in determining voice type. I'm asking if chest range/modle is the KPI for voice type, or are they also considering headvoice?
@vikkiflawith5 ай бұрын
@@INXS- Voice type cannot be determined by one single factor. You don't really have two voices, you have one voice that resonates in two different chambers. Things that determine voice type are tessitura, timbre (or color), agility and range (with training). Range in and of itself is not the predominant factor - classically trained contraltos (altos, lowest female voice), for example, can often sing high C's. But their voice tends to have a richer quality and their tessitura tends to be lower. Within voice types there are also weights of voice, for example, lyric soprano, dramatic soprano, and coloratura soprano. Every one has a chest voice, no matter how high they can sing. Singers work with coaches and teachers of technique to develop and balance both registers so the voice is flexible and moves easily between the two. Hope that helps.

I found my true voice due to this exercise. I noticed that I can go as low as G2. However, when the exercise started at the A4 going downward, I noticed that the A4 was too high for my voice to the point that if I pushed a little more, my vocal breaks. Therefore my vocal highest point is A4. Now my primary voice range is dormant around A2 to A3. I just for the first time noticed that in that range my vocal is smooth and comfortable, there is a little bit of roughness the lower I go but still gentle, melancholic, and deep. For the first time, I understand where the true power of my voice lies and that's a quest I have been on for over 2 decades but I couldn't find the right training to help me find my voice. In combination with this exercise, I used a pitch visualizer that recorded live as I was signing and I also noticed that I need to work on my breathing so that my bridging can be smooth and impactful. And working on my breathing will also help me sustain a note longer without breaking. This was a very inciteful video. Thank you.

Your vocal range spans from D2/D♭2 to C5, which is quite extensive and includes notes typically found in both the lower and higher registers for many singers. Prima voce, or the comfortable singing range, from C3 to F4/F♯4, aligns well with the mezzo-soprano to alto range for female voices. *Vocal Classification* Tenor: Traditionally a male vocal range from approximately C3 to B4. Mezzo-Soprano/Alto: Female voice types that typically cover the range from A3 to A5 for mezzo-soprano and F3 to F5 for alto. Given that you identify as a girl, it’s more accurate to consider you within the mezzo-soprano or alto categories rather than tenor, despite the range overlap. Your ability to hit lower notes (D2/D♭2) is exceptional and suggests a highly versatile vocal capacity. While your ability to reach notes in the tenor range is impressive, it's more appropriate to classify your voice as a mezzo-soprano or alto given your gender and the typical classification of female voices.

I always hated my voice until I realized I might be an alto and searched artists with alto voices. I started to like my voice a bit more. Then I heard of mezzos and contraltos and I no longer felt ashamed of being a woman with a deep voice. Those contralto women are just 😘🤌 My range according to this is C#3 to F5. But my comfort or prima voce is G3 to A4. So am I an alto or contralto? I've been listening to artist with that vocal range and their voices sound sooo rich! 😍

Total range: C#2-D#5 Prima Voce: B2-A#4 I also haven’t been singing as much in the past decade. I seem to remember I could reach slightly higher when I was singing more regularly in choirs. I definitely used to have the lower end of my voice die to almost nothing around F2, and what I can produce around C2 is what I used to get around E2 and F2. I do tend to begin to cough when I push up towards the top of the treble clef. It’s a good sign. I’m hoping to write and record music. I have some work to do, but it’s nice to see I have some raw tools to work with.

For prima voce, my voice is split between chest and head, how should I consider this split? I could say my prima voce is from A2 (chest) to D5 (Head). I just dont know if there is another way that makes more sense. My results Min:G2 MinPV:A2 MaxPV:D5 Max:B6

My full range is a D3 to F#6 and my prima would be at F3 to B4. I was always confused because most days I’m more comfortable on my lower range than I am on my higher range but will randomly be able to sing some high notes quite comfortably. This helped tons!

Thanks for the information. I had a my music teacher do my vocal range and she was mind blown, I can sing 4 octaves just tested it, it was 4.5 octaves. But I also can scream a falseto. that is higher. So I can do all the parts of "The Lion Sleeps tonight," I probably should have focused on my singing a bit more. I probably should have gotten a vocal coach.

@Sarteth7 ай бұрын
I know by practice, I'm easily qualified as bass as I can go lower below C2 before breaking. I'm also able in my upper range to hit above C5. Prima Voce is D2 to A4. By fluke, I have a comfortable range above the male falsetto. The falsetto transition is rough and difficult, but I get past it into my "head voice" and I sing along easily with Whitney Houston on "I Will Always Love You" after the key change, as well as Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" without dropping octave (even the long hum at the end of the song).

Eb2 is crazy low for a woman! But I have to ask, did you hit that note in chest voice or fry, because if that was fry then it doesn't count, it's lowest chest note that counts. Asking because a lot of people think that their voice is crazy low because they hit a super low note in vocal fry, but they don't know that it's normal to be able to go super low in vocal fry, it's the chest voice that counts. But if that Eb2 is in chest voice that's insane.

You're definitely lying, or that G1 is in vocal fry, but if it's not (which I highly doubt) then you're most certainly NOT a countertenor, you're in the low baritone to basso profundo range, hard to tell what voice type specifically because it depends a lot on the resonance of your voice, but I highly doubt your hitting that G1 in chest voice at all, let alone as a usable singing note
@dylaneverhartmusic11 ай бұрын
You can't possibly have a primo voce up to E5. Even sopranos don't have that. Also the G1 seems unlikely considering the other notes you listed. I think you should rewatch this video and try again

What I gathered as someone who only sings in the shower and is still learning to translate note sounds from piano to voice. Vocal range: - B2 feels weird, A2 makes me cough. I think it's safe to say C3 is the lowest note. - B5 onwards I can't sustain the notes, it's just sad puppy noises. I'm capping it at A5 😂 Prima voce: - I feel a shift at F3, I guess it's G3 for lowest then? - There is also a change at C5, so I think highest is B4. Oh look I'm an alto 😂

Thank you SO much for this video and sheet! ❤ I've been wondering for forever "what I am," especially since my range has become lower (and will go even lower once I start taking testosterone, so I'll be coming back 😉) and since I want to start singing in a choir some time, it would definitely help if I know beforehand where my range is. I used to be a soprano (according to my teacher in school) and have become a mix of tenor and baritone. But based on my prima voice I'm mostly a tenor. Again, thanks a billion! ❤ If you, or anyone else, has any questions, feel free to ask as I'm very open 😊

Hi there, fascinating video. My results were range F1-A4 (C5 in Falsetto), Prima Voce C2-C4. I'm 50 5his year & spme days I can get a little lower than F1 too. Ironically, as a teenager, my range was Eflat2-G4, but my falsetto went up to G5. I'm definitely a Basso Profundo now though.

I especially liked that you spent some time explaining how ach voice is different and that it's unlikely for anyone to fit neatly into one of the "big bins". There's a reason we use a shitton of smaller bins in Germany 😉 My vocal fach is dramatic colloratura mezzosoprano. It's a really *really* rare fach and the only reason I know what it is is because one of my friends happens to be a professionally trained opera singer with the exact same fach. But the fuck of it is: I'm not even really a mezzo. By standard classifications, I'm an alto (a low alto, even, with a tessitura from E3 to C5). And that's likely where that "dramatic" comes from in my case - I have a lot of volume and weight in my voice, from actually being an alto in the "basic four" classification. However, I can also sing coloratura, which is pretty much unheard of for "true" alto voices. So to avoid complications like "I'm an alto, but spicy" and then going through the full range of what that means, I just call myself a dramatic coloratura mezzosoprano. To anyone who doesn’t know the words, the explanation wouldn't mean anything anyway. And if that despriction means something to someone, they'll take away the same key info of "ah, a weird voice" as if I had talked them through the full explanation. Now, according to your specific ranges, I'm pretty much anything between a tenor and a soprano (my full range is A2 to D6 with my tessitura sitting between E3 and C5), but yeah. Classifications are hard, lol
