I sing bass in a barbershop choir (i do enjoy other music aswell but me and my friend both agree, barbershop is the best none tutorial vocal training you can get and when those chords ring, you feel like you want to marry music!) i have a real problem with my range, i can't reach above a middle c! it really bums me out cos all my bottom notes down to bottom Bb (2 8ves below mid c) are good but my high notes suck. It does however mean i have a good falsetto so if u really need a counnter tenor i could try!
PS, if anyone can help me in finding and developing head voice for use in choral singing, speak (or sing) now!

Welcome Joseph Haydn!

Nice you found to us.

Anyway, now we really have to search for more tenors and altos for our "Forum-Choir".

Greetings,
Daniel

Alto!!!
We may be referred to as weird (coughJosefHaydncough) but we totally rock.
Whats this about a forum choir?

I am a soprano, but I can sing alto. I am starting to sing soprano II sometimes.

Welcome to the forum, MelodicDreamer!

@ikklebassonist: The "forum-choir" is the imaginary group of all of us singing together in an imaginary choir.

All the best!
Daniel

Don't underrate us Daniel. Our choir is FEIRCE..... we just dont know it yet .

But suriusly, we gotta get this forum active again. I'm no one to talk, but we gotta do it for real!

Love ya'll


Oh, P.S. Tenor here. I look at the poll and there are 3 of us?!?!?!? :Gasp: oh wait.... lack of tenors is what gets me gigs, whoops. LoL

What happened to mezzo sopranos? Don't you love us? I sing alto in chorus but I am a mezzo soprano.

Last time I sang in a choir I sang tenor. I believe it takes a real woman to sing low. I've sung alto and sop as well; I pretty much go where I'm needed. (In various choirs I've now sung four out of six parts of Byrd's Sing Joyfully . . . just need to pick up Sop 1 and Bass).

One of the things I love about singing alto in a women's chorus is the great low parts. SATB arrangements don't usually have those nice, rich low parts for women. I especially love Ron Nelson's alto parts.

Hey guys!

Im a bass..since my voice is so low...But I think I can sometimes sing baritone if I have the willpower to do it....Im having a choir class for school for this year..so hopefully by then, my music teacher will tell me what part my voice is in=D
Musically,

I am a tenor.

I think I’m a baritone… Let me tell you about my voice training. My first voice teacher was a bass/baritone so he trained my voice to become one. When I transferred to another teacher who happens to be a tenor, he wanted my voice to sound like a tenor! So then I thought that I would become a tenor. I had a difficult time adjusting. Both of them wanted to change my voice. It was only later that I realized that my voice is actually a baritone. My voice is rather thick and I couldn’t sing the tenor range.

tenor here.

A bass, there,

at your service.

Well, I'm not able to sing a low F or G, so I must be a baritone. I sung in a church choir for several years.
