What is my vocal range?
I know there is a lot odd factors when it comes to determining vocal range. Unfortunately, I am not quite sure where my voice lies when it comes to tone, depth, or any of the main factors. I just took a sound test on YouTube and wrote down the notes that I could hit comfortably. E3 to F6... From what I understand that is three octaves but I'm not quite sure what it means in regards to being an alto, mezzo soprano, or a soprano... And then I think there are a few versions of each of those types of voices? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!
What's my vocal range exactly?
Okay, I've asked this so many times before and sometimes I came up to the conclusion that I was a contralto, other times a mezzo-soprano... but what the hell, I can't be both! My complete vocal range goes from D3 to D6. My comfortable range lies between F3 (sometime E3) and up to E5, depending on the day. However, the range where I sound best is between A3 and C5, or, if you prefer, it's my "tessitura". Here's a song I can sing pretty nicely (Gary Jules - Mad World). It kind of shows off my lower range better, but I can definitely go higher. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7_3eaaZ... I don't have a cover made yet, but I can sing that song (Lacuna Coil - What I See) pretty comfortably : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sx62WatE... So yeah... I read somewhere that range doesn't really matter when it comes to vocal types and that the best way to find one's vocal type is based on the timbre. But thing is, I find my timbre is RIGHT between contralto and mezzo-soprano! But as I said, I don't think I can be both at the same time! Or can I? Help!
My vocal range is B3 - D5. What am I?
How on earth could she be an Alto and she can't even go to G#3? She's no where NEAR an Alto. Infact, a lot of Altos, especially in Choir, can't even go to a C5 without STRAINING. She has to be a developing Soprano. You're DEFINATELY some form of Soprano. If you aren't able to go below Bb3, you're not where near an Alto. Sorry. I know Soprano range is geneally from C4-C6. The Alto range is from F3-E5. The lower notes say a lot 'cause it tells you where your tessitura lies, and if you aren't able to go below a note like B3, that means your tessitura doesn't "naturally" or in essence support the lower notes unwillingly. This means your tessitura is reasonably high. Higher than an Altos that's for certain. So I think you're a Soprano that hasn't fully developed. You're still blooming. I'm going to say you're a Mezzo. Mezzo Sopranos are the most common voice type for females anyway. Your range will only improve from here. But you are definately without a doubt of the Soprano family. Not Alto lol
What's my voice type? Im 14 and my vocal range is A2-Gb4?
I agree only in part with the others that say you're too young to have a voice type. I'll say that you're too young to stamp a label on yourself that might influence your confidence. It's one thing to have something you can hold on to as a way of feeling like you belong to a particular tribe, so to speak. But it's also dangerous to say "I'm this," and then settle for that label.I know it's weird to get all philosophical about it. It's an honest, simple question, and you deserve an honest, simple answer. I'd call you a baritone, maybe even a bass I (for now). There's no harm in that. It offers you the greatest amount of flexibility as a vocalist to practice and extend your range in both directions. I myself was a natural tenor all through my post-pubescent years, but the higher I pushed my range and practiced, the more my range extended downward. In fact, I was All-State Choir three years as a bass II, and I'll tell you, it was the best thing ever. I'll leave you with this: I don't claim to know how far along you are in your physical maturity, and that is another reason entirely for remembering to not hold tight to any labels, because your voice will change a lot from now until you're in your late thirties-early forties. Absolutely will. So my advice is, enjoy a rich, foundational vocal range you have at fourteen, and do your level best to practice and make yourself as flexible as possible the rest of your adult life. That way, labels truly won't ever matter.
Hello what is my vocal range if i can go from F2-F5 no strain and using falsetto F6 also whats my voice type with normal voice?
Your vocal range from F2 to F5 spans three full octaves. Your falsetto is not used for determining your voice type. You are likely a baritone with an extensive vocal range, however, your voice is determined by your comfortable singing range. As such, You are a tenor if you are able to sing comfortably in the range from C4 to C5. You are a baritone if you are able to sing comfortably in the range from A3 to A4 You are a bass if you are able to sing comfortably in the range from F3 to F4.
My vocal range is A3-C5. What does that make me?
Long winded answer: I don't have enough info to tell. Are you singing with a belting quality? Does it feel as if their is a break in your voice at C5 and you switch into a lighter sound? If A3 is your absolute lowest note, then you are a soprano who is just not aware of how to access your high range (head voice). You'd laugh at how many freshmen we've had come in who were sworn altos only to find out that they were really sopranos, lol. Range is also not the best indicator of what voice type. What you really look at is tone quality and what pitches are most comfortable-- what we call tessitura. If you are most comfortable singing lower notes, like B to G, then you are a Mezzo-soprano. If you are more comfortable around G to C, then you are a Soprano. Does your voice have a darker or lighter feel to it? Again, dark is mezzo, light is soprano. Really, the only way to know is to have someone hear you.
My vocal range is E3 to E5. Am I an alto, or...?
I'm 16, and going to try out for my school's choir. I wanted to know what vocal range I am, whether it be an alto, mezzo-soprano, or contralto. I can sing E3 to E5 comfortably. I've been singing my whole life, but never taken lessons or anything of the sort. I know I'm too young to know my vocal range permanently, but I was wondering where I would be placed in the class. Thank you!
I have a vocal range of C2-E6? I am a male. What vocal classification am I?
A well trained voice range for a male is about 2 and 1\2 octaves so when you're talking over 4 octaves means you're including falsetto and vocal fry which don't count when you're classifying a voice in normal baritone or tenor terms. If you have developed your falsetto to a performable level like Michael Jackson or Lionel Richie did then you're probably not using your low (chest) voice much. All of that falsetto land is in the soprano range but you wouldn't be called a soprano. With the low note you gave I would say you were probably a baritone. Hard to tell without knowing where your passaggio is and the color of your tone. If you are always singing above your passaggio I would call you a counter tenor, but that term doesn't really go with pop voices singing in that range. Just don't worry so much about range and go get a good voice teacher if you're serious about singing. They will help you find the repertoire that's appropriate for your voice.

What can I do to get a bigger vocal range?
First of all, your lowest notes are basically going to stay the same after you've reached adolesence. You may be able to stretch it a little but not much more than a minor 3rd. Some mornings you can go lower. It's a matter of relaxation, so that's why you sound lower in the morning after relaxing all night. Same thing happens when you're working your lower range. Don't push down to the low notes. Just relax the throat to the edge of a yawn and think forward to the bottom note.Keeping the throat relaxed and forward also works on the higher notes. The throat wants to collapse and get pushy so the higher you go the more you will need to compensate for the natural tendency the throat has to close. So, I have a couple of imagery things for you to do. These exercises are to help you think down and forward as you go up, which helps to keep the throat open, thus negating the natural reflex to close and make the notes with your throat. Try this:Imagine you have two pillars in your throat and the higher you go the more they come apart. (To visually help, put the palms of your hands together in front of you then pull them apart as you ascend). This works best with ascending arppeggios or glides.Another image to help you open the throat (which is actually lifting the soft pallet and lowering the larynx) is to imagine pulling taffy or rubber bands apart with your hands. The higher you ascend the more you stretch the taffy and open the throat, always thinking down into your support.Practice sirens. Remember that exercise your choir director gave to warm you up before rehearsal? It's that surprised “ah”, “oh” or “oo” that glides up and down to help warm up the voice.Practice your vampire accent. Say “ I'm Count Chaaaawcula, I waaahnt to drink your blaaahd”. This lifts the soft pallet, lowers the larnyx and opens the throat.The higher you go the more work it is for your lower support to keep the throat open so you must always keep thinking down and forward as you go up. When you're ascending up the scale to your highest notes the jaw must also be loose with the tongue touching your bottom teeth (it is relaxing flat against the bottom of your mouth.Again, the best way to build that top range is to practice what I have written above repeatedly on legato style arpeggios and glides so you can feel the stretch of the throat opening as you approach the top.With practice you can put on an extra half an octave on your top. Good luck!
