Have you ever noticed that in a choir, some singers soar high like birds while others rumble deep like big drums?
How high or low a musical sound is called its pitch.
Adult singing voices are sorted into four main voice types based on their pitch range: soprano, alto, tenor, and bass.
Which voice types handle the higher notes in a song?

Soprano and Alto: The Higher Voices

A soprano is the highest singing voice type, usually sung by adult women, reaching the bright and sparkly notes at the top of a song.
An alto is a lower adult female voice that sings rich, warm notes just below the soprano.
What about the voices that fill in the bottom half of the sound?

Tenor and Bass: The Lower Voices

A tenor is the highest adult male voice type, singing bright, clear notes in the middle range of choir music.
A bass is the lowest singing voice of all, producing heavy, rumbling low notes that give the whole song its solid foundation.
