Glossary

Please note, the terms in this glossary may have its specific meaning in the particular context or subject, so naturally the descriptions are in no way complete in an encyclopedic sense.

Vocal Range

The term vocal range describes the full spectrum of notes, that a singer can produce with his voice. The spectrum starts at the lowest pitch and ends at the highest. The distance between those is called range.

The vocal range may be developed and change depending on training and proper technique. In classical music, solo performances or opera, the range is defined not by ability alone, but by use in music and by consistency of performing it.
