  • Operatic voices - Voices with proper classical technique and skills which can be heard without amplification throughout the opera house, over the orchestra and choir.
    Male voice types:
    The male classical singing voice can be broadly classified by their tessitura (comfortable range) as follows:
    1) Tenor : Male voice with the highest tessitura. Range: A3 to C5(or higher)
    2) Baritone : Middle-range voice type for men and is the most common male voice. Range: G2 to A4
    3) Bass : The lowest voice type, with the lowest tessitura. Range: C2(or lower) to F4
    The above 3 voice types can be further divided on the basis of their vocal weight and quality as:
    a) Lyric : A warm voice with a bright, smooth and full timbre and can be heard over a big orchestra.
    b) Dramatic : A powerful, rich, emotive voice that can sing over a full orchestra with ease. Usually has a lower tessitura than the Lyric voice.
    c) Buffo : A voice with good acting ability, and the ability to create distinct voices for his characters. This voice specializes in smaller comic roles.
    Other voices include:
    - CounterTenor : A type of classical male singing voice whose vocal range is equivalent to that of the female contralto or mezzo-soprano voice. True countertenors are extremely rare and the part is usually sung by baritones using falsetto.
    - Leggero Tenor : This voice is light, agile, and capable of executing difficult passages of fioritura.
    - Spinto Tenor : This voice has the brightness and height of a lyric tenor, but with a heavier vocal weight and can be "pushed" to dramatic climaxes without strain
    - Helden Tenor : A rich, dark, powerful and dramatic voice with a more baritonal quality.
    - Mozart Tenor : A tenor voice with characterised by flawless and slender emission of sound as that of an instrument.
    - Baryton-Martin : A Baritone with a lighter, almost tenor-like quality.
    - KavalierBariton : A metallic voice, that can sing both lyric and dramatic phrases, a manly noble baritonal color.
    - Verdi Baritone : A type of dramatic baritone who is capable of singing consistently and with ease in the highest part of the baritone range.
    - Bass-baritone : A voice in the lower range for a baritone and the higher range for a bass. Sub-classified into lyric and dramatic bass-baritones.
    - Basso Profundo : A very deep bass voice. The voice with the lowest tessitura. Sub-classified into lyric and dramatic Basso Profundos.

      Nice collection , Most people confuse Leggero with tenore di grazia. Leggero is the make equal of a Coluratura. Its a style not a sound. The Rossini tenor is a leggero. Florez qualifies. . I feel like Ramey and Siepi were both Basso Cantante (cantabile), even though Siepi had the lowest notes of a profundo. I think of dramatic basses more in Wagner- THe wander, Fafner, Hundig types. Since the Verdi baritone is really an American creation, I wonder you didnt use an Americsn as the example. Tibbett, Warren, MacNiel, Milnes. Bastianini , a great singer to be sure, is not typical of the Verdi baritone.

      @@voicualex87 Lyric and dramatic voices sing different repertoire for a reason. Just look at Hvorostovsky & Pavarotti singing the duet Invano Alvaro, form La Forza Del Destino. Hvorostrovsky is clearly forcing his voice too keep up with the dramatic demands. Compare that version to Ettore Bastianini & Corelli - Invano Alvaro 1958 live in Naples. Bastianini does not have to force himself or his voice to keep up with the dramatic demands. The history of opera is littered with lyrical singers damaging their voices by singing dramatic repertoire.

      It isn't about singing higher or lower. It is about the weight and size of the voice. Franco Corelli was a dramatic spinto with a big voice and he could sing better high notes then many lyric tenors, check out Corelli singing A Te O Cara an aria for a leggero tenor, the difficulty with a voice like that is the weight and flexibility not necessarily the range. Tito Schipa was a leggero tenor who couldn't sing a C5. A heldentenor or a dramatic tenor is a big, loud, heavy and powerful voice, that needs to sing over massive orchestras with brass instruments.

    A lyric tenor has a bright, strong, full timbre voice and can be heard over a big orchestra. Does Bocelli have a strong, full timbre voice?
    Examples of Lyric tenors are Pavarotti, DiStefano, etc
    A spinto has a heavier voice than a lyric and can have a slightly lower tessitura. eg. Corelli, Domingo,etc.

    Ramey is indeed a bass-baritone. When compared to Cesare Siepie, Jerome Hines (or hell even bass-baritones like George London and Hans Hotter) his voice is much lighter but still carries weight on the bottom utmost parts of the voice (G2, F2, E2)

    • @ajaycm8250
      @ajaycm8250  7 років тому +2

      deadwalke - good that you took this point. The classification of tenor/baritone/bass has more to do with the range than the weight/lightness of the voice. Lyric/Dramatic determines if it's a light or darker/heavier voice. As you had mentioned Ramey has a light voice and siepi/hotter has a heavier voice and so one is a "lyric" and the other is a dramatic. Meanwhile you've also noticed that Ramey has stronger lower notes showing his range which classifies him as a bass whereas hotter is a bass-baritone with a comparatively upper range. Hope this clarifies it.
      Technically, a dramatic tenor/baritone/bass sings with a low positioned larynx while a lyric has mid-high larynx position.

    This makes me curious about a few Finnish opera singers. Martti Talvela was an operatic bass with a very powerful voice, though I'm not sure which subtype he fell under. A lyric or dramatic basso profundo, maybe? Then there's bass-baritone Hannu Forsberg and tenor Tom Nyman whose subtypes I'm not sure of.
    In case anyone wants to take a crack at figuring them out, here's Talvela: ua-cam.com/video/lM531FqMvqE/v-deo.html; Forsberg: ua-cam.com/video/7My2UNiZBwU/v-deo.html; and Nyman: ua-cam.com/video/YdMeEhnA-8Y/v-deo.html

    Different sources distinguish different classifications. If voice strong enough it is not complete lyric tenor. Lyric voice is mild mellow smooth. If voice has a height and enough strong and brightness it's a spinto tenor. There is two tipes of spinto: Lyric spinto (lower weight, less strength and brightness) and Dramatic spinto (higher weight like a lyric, but more power and brightness) I convinced that there is no vivid bound between. Some voices can be defined as both.

    This is a little silly. There is a well defined male operatic fach that is not even mentioned - Basso Buffo. The video maker has included a category Heldentenor which is essentially a dramatic tenor just singing in German. Leo Nucci made his career singing Verdi baritone parts but here is called a Clavier Baritone. Usually that term is reserved for parts like the Count in Le Nozze which stop at around F Sharp. Verdi baritones sing a little higher.
    The fundamental frequency of human voices is a function of the length of the vocal cords and these vary continuously. They do not come in discrete fixed ranges. I'm a bass but I can manage some baritone parts (damn few) and have performed some. Many natural baritones can sing tenor (e.g. Domingo, Bergonzi, Ordonez) Most guys like to move up if they can because the high parts pay better.

      Right. The most famous buffo tenor part isn't in opera but operetta - Eisenstein in Fledermaus. Sometimes it's done by operatic baritones and other times by tenors. It has a lot of acting requirements so the casting is only determined by vocal range. There is another real tenor part (Alfred) in Fledermaus so I think baritones are usually preferred to keep balance. Of course there is also a conventional baritone part too. Could be wrong about that.

My range is F#2-D5... but I know that tessitura is so much more importante than vocal range, so I think my tessitura is Ab2-Ab4 (in other words is G#2-G#4). My voice is kinda dark and powerful till Ab3, where my passagio happens, and is still powerfull above that but I oscilate between warm and mettalic there. My head voice starts at F4 (th second passagio at E4). Above A4 I became unconfortable.

Tenors, at least from what I've heard, generally have at least some light youthfulness to their voices to make them sound brighter.
