Full baritone, E2-Bb4. Though for choir I'm in the Tenor 2 section.

When I joke-sing I can go from extremely deep to an embarrassing banshee scream or if I'm lucky straight shreek, so my range is probably quite good even if I can't sing worth a dime.

Apparently F2 - A#4, although I definitely need practice actually hitting the notes since I don't sing that much.

The odd thing about my range is that it hasn't changed much since I was about 14. (I had it tested by my choir teacher, and she said A2 was about the lowest I could sing.) I guess I really was an early bloomer.

If I take a big enough breath, I can hit the E5 that Carrie Underwood hits on the bridge to "All-American Girl" ("Honey, you oughta knoooooooow"). But most of the time when I sing along to a song by a female artist or a high-voiced male (e.g. Gary LeVox of Rascal Flatts), I have to drop it an octave.

E3 to E6, and boy did I have to work for that E6. I'm a lyric soprano who always wanted to be an alto.

Pretty sure I'm a mezzo-soprano (I'm female and my name isn't really Liam), though I've never had proper lessons so I can't be sure. I can just about sing from F3 (only really in the morning) to C6 (on a good day) but I'm most comfortable between A3 and F#5 and like to sing medium-high.

I don't know exactly, but I'm for sure an alto, and I can cover a pretty good range, at that. From Adam Levine's highest to... Somebody's lowest.

After a bit of testing, D2note â€“A5note  seems to be my range, which I did not expect.

I'm not much of a singer, if that tells you anything.

Thanks. I'm still 16, so maybe that's why. And I have to strain to hit some of the notes...

I don't know my precise range, but according to my old music teacher before I quit choir I'm an alto. I struggle with high notes and very low notes, and there are quite a few songs I like that I have to key down (or occasionally key up) to sing.

Tenor, can go G2-G5 in full voice, falsetto takes me up to E6, and whistle up to C8! Can go down to F1 in fry! I'm still a teen, so it will probably change.

I'm a soprano. (I've exclusively sung the highest Soprano I part in every choir I've been in. As can be inferred, I can't sight read to save my life tongue) F3-A7, and can whistle up to A8 on a good day.

Though I mostly sing jazz nowadays so my high range isn't typically in use. I'm still in one classical choir to make sure it doesn't disappear from lack of use

I'm a higher ended alto, maybe a mezzo-soprano, but I haven't had any formal vocal training so I don't have a very strong range. I can carry a tune just fine, but the lower/higher notes of my range are weak.

For reference, I can pretty much sing most of the Beatles songs in their normal octaves comfortably (except for the very lowest notes), but can go about an octave above if need be.

Contralto, a lot of midrange tenor parts are very easy for me.

Apparently I'm an alto? But basically I have two singing voices: The lower one I speak with which can go low but not low enough, and the higher one I sing the girl parts with which can go high but not high enough, and the huge gulf in the middle where I can't sing worth a damn.

Checking it recently, my current range is almost exactly B2-G5, with my low register being my strongest. I think there's some specific German naming convention for my singing style, but I can't think of it off the top of my head. Probably the "young bass" part. When I was in my teens I could go from about F2-C6 but a nasty bout of mono ruined my range. With proper vocal training I might be able to recover some of it, but that's a ways off.

G3 to roughly Db 6. My speaking voice is pretty deep but singing-wise, I'm most comfortable with the heaviest dramatic soprano arias.

I've never known much about music, but lately I've been wanting to learn at least the best way to use my voice - maybe how to play one of my dad's instruments too (guitar, mandolin, electric keyboard, tin whistle). So I might post more on this forum in the future asking for advice on how to get less terrible. evil grin

Seems my range is from E3 (or a shaky and uncomfortable, but still possible, D3) to C5 (maybe a little higher, but then it gets ugly and squeaky). A slightly-low alto, I think?

Effortlessly - from F3 to C5. With struggle - from E5 to D5. Fry, scream, harsh - up to F5-G5.

D2 - G4 in full voice. On good days I can hit A4. Only recently started learning falsetto, so I have no idea how high I can get.

Spiral out, keep going.

I think I'm pretty close to a baritone normally, or a low tenor, but I can briefly go almost to a bass. My biggest problem is a lack of vocal control, in that I haven't refined any breathing techniques. I can get plenty of power behind my voice, both when speaking and if I'm singing with a group. But unfortunately I'm not that good at sticking to a melody or keeping my voice level, which is a problem if I'm usually the loudest in a group. I've been thinking about maybe taking vocal lessons in the future.

I used to sing Soprano 2 for 3 years in college, but then got switched to Alto 2 senior year. So I guess that makes me a mezzosoprano? Also doesn't help that my voice has DEFINITELY gotten deeper, but I still sing (and hit) some high notes when my voice is up to it.

Well, it could always be worse...DAMN.
