Highest Note Ever Reached! Without Whistle Register !

This is the highest human voice that only mado robin can hit several times without any whistle register!
Listen to the last notes it will tell you if it is B7 or D7 or A#7
the world tells that this is the highest without any whistle.!
Please analyse the last notes with much ease which is beautifully sung by the stratospheric coloratura soprano!
According to wikipedia she does'nt need to use a whistle register!
My question is why?
Someone please answer it!
__--__-__-----
Omitted in Bel Canto Society -
Robin (1918-1960) is listed in editions of the Guinness Book of World Records :
in the Lucia "Mad Scene." At the end of the Hamlet aria she sings an F-sharp, at the end of the Mireille,
she was the preeminent 20th-century French coloratura.
according to listverse.com -
This amazing French singer has one of the highest recorded notes in classical music. You must listen to the whole song - the last note is unbelievable! Put your crystal in a safe place! I have done some research and various sources give her highest note as either a B above Top C, or a D above top C, which, if I recall my theory classes correctly, would be B7 and D7 respectively. This is the last octave on a classical piano and is only three octaves lower than G10 (dog whistle pitch), the point at which humans can no longer hear the note. The highest recorded singer is Georgia Brown who is reported (by the Guiness Book of Records) to have reached G10.
according to oxford dictionary of opera -
Mado Robin, who was known for her exceptionally high voice, sang a number of compositions created especially to exploit her highest notes.
According to wikipedia- ( comprehension for the reader)
Rarely will coloraturas use whistle tone when doing high extended notes. However, singers like Mado Robin were noted for doing so. Also, some rare coloratura sopranos do not need to use whistle register at all.
50's recording is sometimes not good in the ear unlike the technology today that can make sounds better nor sharper and can imitate high notes using some softwares!
Please respect the legendary stratospheric coloratura soprano!
( she had'nt need to use a whistle because she is simply stratospheric!)

[@TS_HorusFx]

Lol at People mentioning Ariana Grande here :v You don't compare Operatic singers to pop singers.. There's a WIDE difference.

[@franzee1666]

soo true

[@gene1536]

You can - vocal principles are the same - the notes are not produced any differently - it is the training that makes the difference!

[@bubblesanimations5179]

But you have to learn to sing like this in order to expand on different ways of singing. Not that I like Ariana Grande, i dont like her. My opinion. There is a wide difference, but there is a path to get from one kind of voice to the next

[@StefanieMarquez2k16]

ariana grande?!! I think they mean Mariah Carey. Shes the real deal!

[@torog4727]

stefanie marquez Yes and no...Yes Mariah is fhe real deal as a great modern example of someone who has a whistle register (Back in the 70s, it was Minnie Ripperton that first came to mind) an the no...Mariah or these others are different from people with a pure light lyric or coloratura soprono voice. Without the whistle, Minnie being one of the exceptions, a number of their registers are high Alto or Mezzo/Second Soprano. That extra tissue in the vocal chords enables them to obtain those notes without the ability to really sing it out as a real Soprano can. That latter sentence is why fans of classical music singers don't care for the mentioning/comparison of pop music singers on pages featuring pdrformers of this discipline, to put it nicely.

[@sarahkathleenadams1369]

She doesn't need a whistle register for these notes because that's just a part of her voice. It's as simple as that.

[@carrietide]

Mado's voice was a MIRACLE.

[@whatdoyousuppose]

Alright, I want to clear up what note she's singing...This note is Ab6, not a B7 or anything in the 7th octave. To put things into perspective, the G#/Ab note that we normally acknowledge as a high note (the high note in the aria "O mio babbino caro") is Ab5 and above the staff. C6 is regarded as "soprano high C". This note Ab6 is the G#/Ab that lies above high C. This note is also one octave higher than the Ab5 in "O mio babbino caro". I have absolute pitch, so I could identify it immediately, but I also verified the note with a pitch pipe and a piano.

[@shahbaz2455]

DoctorWhoBAMF I don't think it's the highest note she ever sung. It sounds still higher in the finale of the "Carnaval de Venise" ending the Variations. But her voice vas very particular. Her bass started at high medium of usual soprano voices and all the rest was up. The voice was rather thin and clear, no harmonics and rather shrill. Still it is amazing. She didn't have much studies, she was quite a simple woman, her voice was apparently natural for most of it. It sounds very much like it. She was some kind of "monster" and she used to say that the only thing that prevented people from singing the way she did, so high, was fear. It's not my usual cup of tea but I must say I love to listen to her voice and the simplicity she managed it. A phenomenon.

[@KathrynARyder]

Lara - Lara you are correct. Although Mado Robin interpolates the final note it is still sung in the correct key of the aria which makes it Ab in the altissimo.

[@vera_seppuku]

I sang yesterday G6, but not with such a strenght and half the duration of it. So, it is quite impressive what she does, but I am just starting to use my head voice since 3 days, and I am 36 years old....lol.

[@Xerkun]

Definitely Ab.

[@1dramann]

Mado could go MUCH higher: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpOXeoFrqrWVd6c

I'm wearing headphones, and all the while, I kept turning it up then down, up the down. I'm so scared! lol

[@keller109]

Beautifully sung. Her tone and intonation are just wonderful. And what is with these Ariana and Mariah comments? They don't belong here. The voice and and even the vocal training of a pop singer and an operatic singer are VERY different. Apples and oranges have more in common. Don't compare.You'll look like an idiot to those of us who actually have professional knowledge of music.

[@MultiKamil97]

Cammiboe Kids noticed that Ariana can do whistles and now they bring up her name in every video containing it thinking that she's the best ahhh

[@madamgigi]

FACTS!

[@dAnCeLiFe149]

That last note shocked the crap out of me! Thats amazing! I would love to hear someone sing a note that high and that well in person! :D

[@bunkaunk]

I love listening to this singer. Not because of her high register, although that is a wonderful bonus, but because of the lovely grace with which she sings. She was an artist not just some freak. Even her high notes are lovely notes. She could very well have been famous just for her normal register.

[@annapagdanganan2551]

THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL I AM CRYING

[@MartyMusic777]

This is most definitely in the whistle register. It is nigh impossible to sing in the head register this high without damaging the voice. However, the difference between Mado Robin's whistle register and pop vocalists' whistle registers is that hers is connected to the rest of her voice, and holds remarkable power. For this I applaud her.

[@roj30001]

Whistle register is not a register and it’s not connected in nature you can’t connect it

[@mgvwolf]

WOW! she is AMAZING! i did not know human's can go so high w/out whistling

[@bhunsodalida]

wow! unreachable tone.

[@weepingegg9504]

田利田美演 Well, it is reachable as long as you practice for years.

[@mrbigbigtoe]

Egg Sinner *if you’re a soprano I’m a baritone and the highest note my head-voice will connect to is D6 and that’s if I hit it by accident.

[@Homemdavozaguda]

Não é whistle register, a voz dela realmente era extremamente aguda!!!

[@pachanou]

That woman's voice was crazy !...... She has the highest note ever recorded by a human being.......

[@francescoferigutti7306]

pachanou wrong

[@praveenifernando5099]

Actually 😅 YMA sumac still holds the record for the most powerful vocalist with a crazy huge range! Its humanly impossible, but its real. Her highest note is actually the highest note a woman has ever pitched..

[@kenrryfonseca729]

@@praveenifernando5099 that's not true..

[@GeorgeOfZala]

Crow, I absolutely agree, this is a miracle, high, natural, clear and on the top of that has a tremendous vibrato with it. Just amazing! Most coloratura voices give a squeak even on the high F in Mozart's Queen of the Night aria. Some comes out clean and somewhat even, but never heard such perfect and high note as at the end of this aria. I understand, to make a very high note, the singer has to mentally aim way higher as the note itself.

[@alexdelacruz3543]

Sounds like a mix of chest and head voice. good technique for sure.

[@queopssuzuki6486]

Is not whistle register, but is perfect flute register... Lovely ♡

[@Marcusrafaelfet]

whistle and flute register are the same thing. This was head voice btw

[@lindseydevins]

damn!!!!! that is the highest pitch voice i have EVER heard!!! BRAVO!!!!

[@violetxoxox]

Nope, definitely not whistle. Wow. Just WOW. She was so amazing.

[@lioneladribott5084]

toujours et encore merci pour ces moments merveilleux

[@TrippinInaBox]

this just gave me chills. beautiful.

[@iambryyyan]

I read an article once stating opera singers sing in full voice even when in the whistle register which is why it sounds more.... supported and full. Hope that makes sense.

[@jiminsjams8162]

A true alto can never reach whistle register.Hope that helps

[@leahafer1419]

Jenine Requillo Yes unless your voice changes .

[@jewelmarkess]

Jenine Requillo 1. Mado Robin is a coloratura soprano, so I am not sure what being alto has to do with it. 2. Don't confuse "alto" and "contralto". Altos are many - this is a chorus classification and their range is similar to operatic mezzo soprano. Contraltos are rare. 3. In terms of high notes of operatic mezzo sopranos and contraltos, search for "mezzo soprano and contralto high notes", you may be surprised is how high they can go. 4. Opera singers need to always use full voice and support their singing; otherwise, they'd not be heard in opera where there is no amplification.

[@valeriocesarini5661]

Last note is a (slightly flat) Ab6

[@zeasamudio7048]

wow yes

[@ms.chaewon9231]

I would agreed.

[@sienashawver6511]

Merci pour cette voix merveilleuse.

[@annapagdanganan2551]

BEAUTIFUL

[@brownfebruary7153]

it's a good thing you are learning opera by the time you are done you would know that Mado is a light lyric soprano. she is a type of soprano which is recognized. there are people with light voices like her. She is very standard Soprano.

[@xpoopayyx]

What a phenomenal ending!

[@princesscharis]

these phenomenal top notes were neither artificial extensions or freak sounds but rather sustained tones, bright and round and produced with seeming ease.

[@vera_seppuku]

I sang yesterday G6, but not with such a strenght and half the duration of it. So, it is quite impressive what she does, but I am just starting to use my head voice since 3 days, and I am 36 years old....lol.

[@princesscharis]

Harold Rosenthal notes in his Oxford Dictionary of Opera that Robins top register contained what was supposed to have been the highest tone ever emitted by a singer-C above high C

[@Yumicpcake]

Woah, bravo!

[@mimimoo6159]

This really frustrates me. Firstly, most women don't use falsetto. Most use a very strong head voice range. Falsetto is not about the vocal range you can use falsetto in chest too ... It's using the false or secondary vocal folds in place of the true folds! Falsetto literally means 'false voice' it isn't an 'exta' added on top of your head! It is a technique. For example, Tom Jones can not sing in falsetto and has never been able to (his words!). Also, this modern day obsession with extremely high notes .... Unless you are a soprano and are trained to access these notes correctly then at some point you WILL do damage. Never before have their been so many singers having surgery on their larynx (Adele,Sam Smith, Jessie J in the last year alone) ... Second rant is this; casting in the wrong vocal fach. Unless you are an operatic singer (trained) you are not any fach! It is not simply about notes you can or can't hit it's about style, weight and timbre of voice too. Too many people limit themselves mentally by this. At the end of the day people need to remember tone and control, phrasing and delivery are all more important than notes you can hit.

[@bubblesanimations5179]

preach to the choir

[@sealedbyhisbloodjohn5248]

I can hit high notes without strain at all. Like I can belt a c6 easily and I like to sing in head voice, but I don't have a really girly voice. Am I more of a mezzo soprano or a true soprano?

[@MsCawda]

Angelica Basile that depends on your tessitura. it's possible for a mezzo and a soprano to have the same range.

[@sealedbyhisbloodjohn5248]

+caila carter I always sing high and it's more comfortable for me, I sing high soprano in choir so I think because of my tessitura I'm just a soprano. thanks

[@onedollarbleach6891]

So I can't do high notes since imma boy 😞😞😞 and Mariah Carey can't do whistles cuz she's not a soprano or our voices will be damaged?

[@sarahkathleenadams1369]

You can tell if your high notes are whistle tones or actual tones by whether or not you can hold them and then come down from them easily. It's very uncommon to have notes like these that aren't in a whistle register.

Thank you Sire

i've said it before and i'll say it again. mado robin is a robot

[@princesscharis]

3. When someone is studying bel canto, and she or he do the execises from C4 up to C7 or C8 continiously then u can conect the registers and make it sound as a real voice not as a scream. Im a coloratura dramatic soprano, and i can reach up to E7. I need to study and exercise to master it. The last note it is sound like the mariah careys, as a quality, it is defenatelly whistle register.

[@princesscharis]

I forgot to mantion, thank u for this it is wonderful!!!!

[@hommie4112]

OMG. That is not whistle! She's using her "mixed" voice.. chest and head. AMAZING.

ok, new found appreciation for opera. WOW!

[@steph1806able]

Ah oui quand même 😳 Mado ROBIN était unique par l'étendue et la puissance de sa voix. Ce fut une immense perte sa disparition à 41 ans, elle avait tant à apporter. De là haut, elle doit régaler les oreilles des âmes qui l'entendent 💫

[@ramizday2248]

I love every time Coloratura Soprano. Real Colaraturas very good. Like a Nightingale... Colaratura voices like a Nightingales...

[@kaaremar]

She's a dramatic coloratura. Maria Callas was a dramatic high soprano, Miliza Korjus a lyric coloratura. Miliza sounds like a true nightingale in Alabieff's Die Nachtigall. Listen and you will hear the difference. All excellent singers.

[@brownfebruary7153]

Like you said Mado has an amazingly light voice. When you listen to the whistle of Mariah and Mado's high notes you can tell the difference in the quality, fullness and richness of the sound. That is your que. I have tried same notes by whistling and singing them in head voice and there is a difference.

[@SoCerebral]

@cynnthemanevolant Nope, she's still singing full voice. Almost impossible to believe, but she is!

[@tiyenin]

Highest note ( 2:30 ) is an Ab6 with a wide, falling-out-of-tune vibrato around G6. Here's a higher one (Bb6, still not in the 7th octave): watch?v=32hdZaQi4-I @2-45

[@ramizday2248]

[@AqworldsTazmain]

If you listen closely at 2:10 it sounds like a car alarm gone off :)

[@Madoculos]

She sounded like a theramin!

[@slimschaap]

Wow.

[@orlando098]

Mado was able to do her amazing high notes on the operatic stage - with an orchestra, in a large hall and with no amplification - so it's fair to assume they were of a different quality to some of the tiny whistle notes some pop singers do into microphones.

[@Lauren5520]

God, I wish I could reach these notes.

[@streamofawareness]

I can go pretty high as a soprano, but not that high! Damn, that was amazing! That said, this is definitely NOT whistle register. Really high notes feel like they're vibrating out of the top of your face. The sound is almost above you, not inside you. If you feel it tight in your throat you are NOT doing it right! High notes have to come from the diaphragm with a lot of breath support, an open throat and good posture. There's a reason singers sometimes make goofy looking faces to hit those high notes, they're making room for all that resonance. There's a lot of relaxing one muscle group to make room for another going on. And boy, it's FUN to hit high notes! :D

[@voiceofwisdom1]

I would not agree that she does not use any whistle. I would describe this as a mixed function , but predominantly whistle. In pure whistle, it is only the cartilages producing the sound, but all professional sopranos should be able to mix whistle and ordinary head voice which is what Mado Robin does here. Otherwise, we would hear nothing but fortissimo screams above say an ordinary B flat. In classical repertoire, we hardly ever sing in pure functions but rather in a continuum of mixed functions. I would say that most popsingers only use a pure whistle functions, but, for most classical repertoire, that just would not do the trick.

[@cacopheus]

Georgia Brown as of 2005 had the highest note recorded by a human voice and that was a "G10" however in the release of Guinness Book 2007 that claim was removed. She is a ring wraith to endure when trying to sing anything and including that cacophony that I'm sure put's her stocking the back shelves of wherever she has taken up employment. Har har

[@ThePingShowJL]

the whistle register is are the highest notes a human being can sing or talk with. If you listen to Mariah Carey, you'll hear it. She is known for her ability to reach very high in the whistle register. When you are at your maximum in the whistle register, your vocal chords are vibrating at their fastest pace.
