The Voice

Add a picture of your favourite singer to your post, say why you like them? My favourite singer is Ariana Grande mostly because I like her voice, the sings she puts out and how you can relate to the songs.

What are the four types of voices and how are they diffrent to each other? Soprano - Soprano voices are subdivided into coloratura, lyric, dramatic and mezzo. COLORATURA soprano have unusually high voices and specialize in performing music coloured by oranamentation, runs and rapid passages requiring great agility. In operas, the herioine's role often calls for a coloratura soprano.

Alto - Alto and Contralto are used synonymously, though contralto sometimes seems to carry the connotation of a particularly deep alto voice. There is no distinction between them in the literature. It exploits the low tones of the female voice. The quality, typically is rich, resonant, dark and 'throaty'.

Tenor - Tenor voices, like soprano voices, sometimes are classified according to type. Robusto (robust), lyric, drammatic and heroic are adjectives commonly attached to tenors.

Bass- bass is a general term for all low male voices. Subdivisions, as with other voices, are predicated more upon the role or selection being sung than upon the characteristics of the voice. A bass singer especially proud of his low notes may advertise himself as a BASSO PROFONDO. One who claims a range encompassing that of bass and baritone combined (or who lacks extremes of either) may adopt the title of BASS-BARITONE. A bass specializing in a lyric style will be known as a BASSO CANTANTE, and one associated with comic roles will be known as BASSO BUFFO.

What does the word acapella mean? a cappella. [ (ah kuh-pel-uh) ] Choral singing performed without instruments. The expression means “in chapel style” in Italian. Centuries ago, religious music composed for use in chapels — which, unlike large churches, had no organs — was usually for voices only.
