Are YOU a Baritone Voice: Vocal Range and Definition |
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 сен 2017
- Calling all Baritones! The Baritone Voice type has a beautiful rich timbre that Tenors like me can only dream of. Why is it then that so many men with a baritone voice spend their time wishing they could sing high like Tenors?
Surely there’s more to being a great singer than uber-high notes. Well, there is, and this video is all about getting the most out of the Baritone voice.

Lmao I’m a baritone and I’m tryna get my voice lower 😂
Majestic maniac subharmonics
Warren Pellacani yeah I know those but that was before I knew your chest voice had a max low but lucky I’m not done with puberty so it keeps getting lower
same
My voice is so high that I sing Alto even though I'm a guy. My range is (Eb)E3-F5(Gb5)
@@spicywatermelon343 pff, high pitched fools.
You are the opposite of me. :) I am a baritone and I envy tenors. Now I hear you saying that you envy baritones :D. We all want to be what we aren't. It's a big relief seeing this video.
yes, that's true.
I'm a baritone and I envy basses lol. Just the thought of being able to sing an D1 chest and knowing i'll probably never going to reach that is crushing tbh
René Müller while me a high baritone envy baritone...i don't really prefer light voice so its a bit dissapointing but its okay..its not as bad as i thought lol😂
I agree with all of you. My 3 favorite singers are, a tenor, a baritone and a bass baritone. But of the 3, the tenor is the most successful. That's what people look at.
René Müller I can do both but I have to use harmonics for baritone range. I’m always jealous of natural baritones
people envying other people being baritone/tenor while im here having a voice of a dying pig
I guess you're destined for grindcore
Lol!!!!! :
In my head, I sound exactly like who I'm singing along to
@@pineapplefarmer7352 lol beat me to it 🤘🎶
LMAO samee
I’m a baritone, my father’s a bass. The struggle I had to face was huge, till I learnt that Jim Morrison was a baritone too! I’m proud of myself!
isaac fiedler I think your uniqueness makes you stronger, I adore the fact that your family sings and has such various ranges, yours is unique, find the timbre that requires as less effort as possible and you’ll be a blessing! That’s what my dad always tell me! To always sing with my “speaking” voice!
yeeessssss, Jim is one of my vocal idols, I am also a baritone
Jim Morrison is a Bari- tenor. Baritone with huge extended range
Lots of successful baritones, just work on stretching the range bro. Good luck.
@@paulharrisonadventuregearm5457 He's a baritone.
i'm kind of a bass with nasally tone... the worst of both worlds XD
Arti try singing while plugging your nose
Arti try country
Haha same but my low note e2 isnt even that low
You should try elvis pricely songs
Bingo, welcome to our happy little family.... and Im sorry. Lol

Was johnny cash Bass or baritone.?
domnic0 I’m not sure, but I don’t think a tenor would sing love me tender the way Elvis did, when he sang a song like tryin to get to you, he sung low and then went quite high
Frustrating for someone like me 😂
Elvis confuses me, when he goes high there seems to be so much energy, he sweats, I can’t work out where that energy comes from, the core or diaphragm 🧐
The highest note any singer can do, bass, baritone or tenor, will sound amazing to the listener, if it's performed well. High notes are relative to the voice type anyway. A bass - who would sing in lower keys/sing lower songs - sounds just as amazing belting an E4 or F4 as a tenor - who, relative to his voice type, sings in higher keys/higher songs - belting a B4 or C5. And for those who are kind of in between the baritone and tenor range (like me, although I would classify myself as a 'tenor in training'): A4 and Bb4 sound just as amazing. It's really all relative :D
If tenor belts B4 or C5 and bass belts E4 or F4 then baritone is G4 or Ab4 which could mean bass - baritone belts Gb4 or G4, high baritone belts A4 or Bb4, low tenor belts Bb4 or B4, and high tenor belts C5 or D5 or possibly above. I possibly would fall into singing high baritone (B2 - B4) to high tenor (E3 - E5) in my full range and tenor (C3 - C5) in tessitura.
Basses top out at E4, bass baritone F4, baritone G4, high baritone A4, tenor B4-C5, high tenor C#5 and above. That's what I've heard at least. If you can belt a B4, then you're an obvious tenor.
It really isn't :D
+Tom Geraci Basses definitely don't top out at E4, that's just commonly where most basses belts top out and are at the best. Some freakish basses can go up to F#4's and sometimes even G4's.
mine voice spinto tessitura
as a low baritone myself i remember when I believed in the curse of the baritone until I stumbled upon a vocal coach who actually teaches range extendation so now I can hit notes in the fifth octave without falsetto
I'm all ears
@@misterbobby8913 mixed voice
I don't think their is such thing as low baritone . You should focus on hitting E4 , F4 and if you can hit those with some practice , then congrats , you are a baritone with a nice range . It's just that you did not go to your full potential
@@KartikSharma-so1pz unfortunately some of us still get called a baritone and I can sing a G1. 😆
@@christianhenry4173 bruh 💀💀 you are a bass then
I'm really glad I found this video. I'd been working so hard to sing like a tenor and it's been so frustrating. I had a eureka moment today when I was performing and I decided to play a Johnny Cash song and it felt so comfortable and I got compliments. I realized i really need to start picking songs or transposing songs to fit my deeper voice. It also explains why I have an easier time singing my songs. I have been writing them, albeit unknowingly, to fit my range!
I'm so glad that there are capable people making quality videos on these topics for free!
Thank you! I know I have a good voice but my tone doesn't fit the cool songs I like and enjoy. I always thought I was stuck between octaves, reaching some higher notes and some lower. Your positive attitude and approach have answered a question I didn't know I had. Now that I wont be wasting time on trying to change physical restrictions I can focus on making my own music. Thank you for your guidance!
I had bigger problem - my damn baritone voice doesn't fit to songs even i wrote, it doesn't sound like it shoud be, no matter how i try. So i chose only right decision - i stopped torture myself and others and just ended with singing after 20 years of semi-professional career . And you know what - it realy helps!
@James Smith All you have to do is to train your vocal cord to be more flexible. When you're singing, imagine that you move your vocal cord like you move your mouth. IMHO
This is very encouraging. THANK YOU so much for this video! As a baritone, many times I've felt underwhelmed for not being able to get to those notes... so I just stopped trying to do it, and focus on singing as best as possible within my range, I still need to work a lot but it feels so much better and more natural. In fact many artists I consider amazing singers never leave their range.
I just want to say Dr. Dan's channel is the best channel for learning everything about singing. Hands Down.
Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated!
I get empowered everytime you tell us to be unique! Thank you very much again Dr. Dan! :D
I owe you a lot in my development as a singer! God bless Dr. Dan! More Power! 😁😉😃
I am soo glad I found this video. I was soo lost thinking that my voice wasn't good enough just because I couldn't sing some of the best songs of my favorite artists.
I am writing my own songs and and the advice u gave in your video really gave me that push I needed to believe and have some confidence in myself. So thank you Dr. Dan
I'm glad you enjoyed the video Jeevan Jibu. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this, my spirit is lifted!! 🤍
Thank you very much for this, it helped me a bit in my confidence now :)
Gracias maestro, esta es una de mas mejorez explicaciones que e escuchado, la myoria no hablan estas cosas y con tanta elocuencia, se agradece mucho, es usted un verdadero maestro que sabe de verdad y puede guiar un mundo de cantantes y aspirantes a cantar. Gracias
There is so much truth in this video. I am a baritone and i adjust the keys to the songs whenever needed for my gigs. Works everytime! And people are pleased just the same. Thank you for this!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video Fitzgerald Galenzoga. Thanks for watching.
I always sing female songs an octave lower!
It’s taken me forever to start doing that. Moving songs into spots where you can represent them best is such a good idea.
@@chrislestermusic exactly! we have different ranges but that should not stop us from expressing this form of art. We color them notes differently. :)
Thank you, Dr Dan! Everything mentioned in this video is absolutely golden. ;)🥰😇
I thoroughly enjoyed this video and your outlook on vocals. You're spot on! I've spent most of my life studying all forms/genres of music. I admire others like yourself, who have a clear open mind/understanding of what music/art is. From playing in concert/jazz band, to playing in bands w/different styles (metal/rock/industrial/alternative), and college for music production. I learned much from classically trained musicians. While technically skilled and precise playing/singing/composing; many lacked what you keyed in on, about (paraphrasing) making it work for them/the piece (setting aside theory/set standards and allowing timing/tonality to make it come together). I had to take advanced music comp twice, because my first professor wanted me to compose original harmonies/accompaniments for classical pieces, and wouldn't accept me adding unconventional notes/patterns along w/the set standard for musical notation. Obviously since there are a few musicians/bands, famous for the ability to pull it off and are considered musical geniuses by peers. Then not only does it work, but it defines what makes music a true artform. The ability to warp/redefine genres and create endless possibilities of sounds. I was blessed that my second professor shared your understanding and had a real appreciation for what I could create. Nothing unique and special is birthed from sticking to what's already been done a million times. Music is meant to break the monotony that can become life; not to become the soundtrack for it.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video Dwain Kindelberger II. Thanks for watching.
I think I can relate to both sides of this story: Your music professor # 1 wanted you to experience and hone in on the "old" masters, and see how the classical compositions were developed. Then, professor # 2, on the other hand, just let you skip this part and go straight to what you like to do. I think it has value to play around and learn the traditional ways first, to have a solid base. After that, one can go off and do the free style "look-what-I- can-do-with-that!" part, which is of course the more exciting part of the story! I hope we get to hear from you, being famous and such, literally! Good luck.
I’m fine with being a baritone, it’s just annoying that like 90% of singers in pop are tenors, so I can’t really sing a lot of the music that I like
you can. Just change the key ;)
You can just take it 3 to 4 keys down hit the notes with more masculinity and your superpower as a baritone will shine depending on the kind of bari you are it will shine between B3 to F#4 hope this helps! Bari on my friend!
I envy the hell out of tenors.
Me the bass. 😏
@@rafaelrandom500 I'm a tenor l envy you!
@@arnelflorvillarico2016 shut TF up
LOL Same (i'm a baritone)
Thanks Doc!, another inspiring tips.
Great advice!
I bumped into your video by googling "Bob Seger voice range" and man, this is just what I needed! Obviously I'm a baritone myself, but most of my favorite music tends to have tenors as lead vocalists. Also, the songs that fellow blues / rock / metal musician like to play are often tenor high stuff. Unless you don't get the things you're saying in this video, it can be hard and depressing even for a vocalist with lower voice to keep up with other players. Especially if the others don't realize the biological and physiological aspects of singing. So, thank you Dan for these kinds and encouraging words. I will most definitely start learning to embrace my own voice!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video Tuomas Hirvonen. Thanks for watching.
Greg Lake from ELP, Matt Barlow from Iced Earth and Mike Patton are 3 of my favourite rock singers of all time who are baritones with great range. Check them out, you might like them.
Very, very good program. It’s all about the timbre, the color of your voice that determines your vocal category. If you force your voice to get lower, you’ll probably damage what you have. If you encounter a teacher or coach that says that can be done.....run. Now, I’ve heard many singers that are singing out of category.....
lol my timbre is that of a really light tenor but I struggle G4 and above
Thank you so much. Its just what i needed to hear
Master. Thanks so much. You área the best.
Soy seguidor de hablahispana pero veo tus videos con el idioma de la pasión por la música. Gracias:)
Hi dr dan can i ask question? Do you have and idea what vocal range kenny rogers had? Is he a tenor or baritone?
You kick butt dude!
I'm a baritone and I really idolized Scott Hoying🤣
You and i are the same😂
Nah he's master of riff n runs also have a solid upper range
The same lol🤣
@@aelvey Yup. His lower range is nice
Same actually! I really see myself in him! 🤩
im so glad there are so many guys out here who had a hard time accepting their voices, i grew up listening to soprano female singers so imagine the torture once i hit puberty. i lost my voice for two years because i was trying so hard to strain it and sound higher. im slowly learning to accept myself
Oh I love this video!! Being over 6ft, I have a deeper voice than some singers but spent years struggling in the tenor range. On my first lesson with my primary vocal coach and mentor, he asked me to sing and play something on the piano. I played a jazz standard. I was enamoured of Chet Baker at the time. He stopped me after two bars and said. “I might be an old queen darling but I certainly don’t sing like one. Let’s take all that down a minor third shall we?” Years of expensive tuition and frustration no other teacher had ever pointed out the obvious. In jazz the baritone crooner has more of a place than rock. Eg Sinatra Bubble Bing et al to name a few. From that seminal moment I was on my way.
Keep up the great intelligently researched superb videos mate!
Yours in constant collegial admiration,
Dr Dorian Mode
I don’t think height/physical size has a particularly strong correlation with voice since I’m 5’5” and have a fairly deep baritone voice.
Sure there are exceptions to the rule. One of my students - Liam Burrows - is tiny and he has a deep baritone voice. Moreover, Sinatra wasn't that tall. But generally speaking... @@thecheeseman31415
@@ModeDorian can relate, im 6'2 and overall I have a deep voice. Gotta brighten it up at times, specially when doing runs.
Agree 100% I'm a proud bass C2-Ab5 is my range. No shame. All sorts of colour to my voice. One should not feel limited by where they fall. You can ALWAYS grow from there...
Great vid!!
MrMak2121 my falsetto is to E6, what is your falsetto?
Bass sounds the best. Very masculine and extremely powerful.
I'm one of these guys who wanted to sing like a tenor. That was torture for my voice :)
Thank you so much for this video!!
You're welcome YourSongPlan. Thanks for watching.
Another great video Dr Dan! In relevance to this video and your puberty voice change video I would like to bring up another issue with most male singers in general after their voice cracks. Most guys after puberty will speak lower, that is a fact. However, it is not natural to force a fake and strong bass sound. Most guys think that it's only natural to speak like a bass after puberty and some think that it's cool to speak lower. Unfortunately these people are misinformed, especially if they wish to find their vocal facht and improve their singing voice. One extremely common way of doing this is by adding vocal fry to sound deeper and richer. Vocal fry is indeed a form of vocal rehabilitation and useful in some situations. However if done incorrectly and very often, is detrimental to the singing voice. This leads onto the next point where many guys start to believe that they are baritones/basses where *in fact they are tenors* (It is factually proven that most males are tenors)! So guys, don't immediately classify yourself as a bass/baritone immedoately and take some time to explore the higher ranges of your voice before making a final decision!
I love being a bass baritone, with the lower end especially. I can go from D2 up to C6 (surprised myself with that one...)
It's helped with the local choirs, especially our local Christmas scratch choir, to be able to support them.
Watching this, I totally fail to comprehend how anybody could dislike this video. Thank you so much for putting these things into perspective!
No worries!
This teacher is very balanced and honest with a hint of humour 😉
This is great advice. The only thing is that my whole deal is that I sing karaoke at a bar most days out of the week, lol. It's important that I find songs within my range so I don't have to keep repeating the same songs over and over.
I love the sweet, smooth and masculine quality of the lyric Baritone such as Josef Salvat or Seth MacFarlane. Very soothing. I am a Contralto and l know that in early history low female voices Mezzo-sopranos and contraltos were all in the same pool and called the same thing, Alto
I love mezzos and contraltos
I’m definitely in the same boat as most baritones other than the fact that my head voice goes up extremely high on a good day.
My full range is: F2-B4-E6
My supported range is: B2-F4-C6
Other than my head voice (which I can only do Sustained notes in...I can’t sing words in it without sounding like a 5 y/o impersonating a female opera singer), I often find myself dissatisfied with not being able to hit the high notes that most modern male singers hit.
Thank you for this video! I absolutely hate when people range shame others and this video helped me realize that it’s ok to not sing high.
I'm a Baritone and I envy Tenors because people are impressed with high notes these days.
Edit:
Mmmmm... No. People have always been impressed with high notes, not just these days. So I really envy Tenors. Most songs I like are made and sang by Tenors or Sopranos and so trying to sing them is a pain. 😟
So I really REALLY wish I was born a Tenor. I could impress everyone around me effortlessly. I just wasn't lucky enough. 😿
I feel the exacttt same way
Thank you very much. This is very helpful. It seems like most male rock and pop singers today sing in a very high pitch voice.
Im 15 years old Im a Baritone, can I change or Turn it into Tenor??
I'm a baritone with a pretty low voice and I've never understood why some want to become tenors. Being a baritone is awesome! Especially, if you have a low, masculine type of baritone voice, you stand out from the rest...I'm proud to be a baritone!
Man needs to listen to Sisters of Mercy, Marian. DEEP baritone in that, and then even with This Corrosion he sings up higher but still baritone. Thanks for the lesson!
I adore the baritone voice. Embrace it, guys!
Thanks for the informative video. I still don't know if I'm a baritone, though...
Hi, Dr. Dan, you are awesome! After practicing singing and technic 30-60 minutes every day for 1 year now, I find that I can hit the notes in tune with my barritone voice much better when I raise my larynx. How can that be? It's like I go flat if I neutralize my larynx or lower it. Thanx
Song choice is key... some songs are simply just not made for baritones and vice versa in the other direction.
This is an interesting video. I know that, as a baritone myself, I've run into speed bumps a couple of times - people assigning me tenor parts in choirs, and things like that. But as a Lyric Baritone (light baritone) I understand now that some believed when I was in my early 20's I'd develop into a tenor.
This was not the case and while I don't have that brassy punch (like Bryn Terfel, for example) of some baritones, it's great to have music which is well-suited to an individual voice.
My lowest chest note is D2 and my comfort highest note is G4, but also i can hit C6-G6 in maybe "whistle"?
This video really help me because I’m a baritone singer. Most of the time I’m try to find the high note on my voice but I forget the uniqueness of it. Now, I had to find it in my voice and not focus on the range
Amansah, I think you'll also enjoy the following videos about finding your voice -ruclips.net/video/GnGIJ1md444/видео.html
Excellent advice 😉🎶👍
Glad you think so!
I have a low baritone voice and singed blackmetal for 4 years after 8 years of classical training and kind of did it wrong, trying to accompany my lead singer who had a tenor voice. And later on, after I started to show PTSD symptoms due to my work as an EMT, I started to struggle to relax my torax and expand it. Any tips to get my voice back to nornal aside from my ongoing psychotherapy. I also played the flute for 6 years but struggle to control my breathing as well. As of right now, I can only sing in the shower.... silly I know but I was super happy I could sing again. Thanks for the upload.
I want to know my vocal type can you help me? My chest voice range is F2-F4 i can't sing many baritone songs, they generally have G4 and A4 and i can't sing too low. This is like a curse :/ with my head voice i can go A5 sometimes i can hit F6 G6 with unhealty way i think because it hurts.
Looks like my voice got a little bit of everything. From Bass to Baritone, to Tenor, to Soprano and Alto.
What type of songs and instruments would you recommend I put put my voice into? I’m thinking r&b..
Hi Dan - You have two typos on the slide that starts with “Rock voices...” Interesting video. I wondered about the bass vs baritone designation in classical music prior to 1800.
Dr Dan, what’s your opinion of vocal teachers that say that it’s possible for a baritone to sing higher?
Been insecure only being to sing low notes for years, thank you
Hi. I am untrained. My chest range is from A2 to G4, i don't have a mix. My falsetto/head voice extends to hit G6/A6, what is my vocal type?
[as a tear slides down my cheek] Thank you, Dr. Dan.
Sincerely,
A Baritone that has longed hit the same notes as Geddy Lee.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video Ridgerunner2112. Thanks for watching.
I am not sure about my vocal type and I would really like to know... The lowest note that I can sing somewhat comfortably is an B2 that I can sustain... My lower register though ends up roughly to G#2 and not all days... As far as my higher register is concerned I can belt easily an Eb4-E4-F4 and maybe an F#4-G4(-G#4) but these are maybe mixed because there's a lighter tone in them... I can, however, hit but not sustain at all notes till D5... My falsetto extends to B5-C6 ( with a not quite controlled C6 ) and I would like to mention that I am untrained and I haven't taken classes so far... I would like also to point out that I can't sing constantly in the 4th octave... Am I baritone or a tenor ????
Thank you Dr. Dan. I am a lyric baritone who has low notes and high notes of course. I can sing an A above middle C if I think happy thoughts. I will embrace my vocal range. I appreciate your encouragement!
Wonderful!
Sometimes when I just absentmindedly sing I always end up changing certain bits of songs because my voice can't handle long moments, a song where I'm god tier at is Ten Feet Tall by The Devil Makes Three.
I’m a guy who can easily sing from D2 (sometimes C#2) to A4 and sometimes up to a B4 with extra effort. What does this make me?
Im a baritone with a chestvoice range of Bb1-B4(which I mostly Used) Im proud to be a heavy baritone because It feels Like I have superpowers because I can change my voice timbre to rock n roll, ballad, gospel, and even Operatic sound If needed! I feel like I can do anything thanks to my baritone voice. So my baritone brothers, just explore and one day you can achiece what Ive achieved too.
Just found this video and I recently found out I'm a baritone. My whole life I went around thinking I was a tenor because I always felt my voice had a high pitch. I was categorized as a bass/baritone when I was forced to join a chorus in elementary, but thought it was just cause I half-assed the mandatory audition. 20+ years later and I guess the instructor knew my voice better than me lol
I guess I gotta go apologize to everyone for trying to belt out all those high notes during car karaoke.
My vocal range is from c2 to G#4 ...but my G#4 note is not strong. How can I make it strong. Also how can I make my head voice stronger.
Thank You!
My vocal range goes from B1 to C6 but I switch to head voice on B4, am I a baritone? I've been told that I am. I've only sung a C5 on mixed voice once, not sure if it's bad technique or I'm just baritone
Im a baritone i was obsessed with high notes and i developed from Eb4 to Eb5 and now i see that being a baritone isnt bad at all actually im looking for the lowet notes
My Vocal Range:
Chest Voice- F#2-G#4
Falsetto- C5-G5
What is my vocal type? Bass or Baritone?
You all need to realize. Even if you are a tenor, you aren't gonna come out of the gate with no training being able to hit Bb4 or C5 effortlessly. That's not realistic.
Interesting
Truth. Baritone here C#2-C#5 I used to struggle with F#4 now it’s a very easy note…
My vocal range is E2-G#5-C6 but when i sing from G#4 I have to strain. I wonder if my voice is martin baritone or full lirico tenor because my mid notes is brighter than high notes
I agree! Jonathan Davis from Korn is a great example for this. He is a Baritone.
I'm a baritone and I'm often told I have one of the deepest baritone voice that they heard. Often I'm told to I should try to raise my voice and that it is to deep. Than others just love this deep voice. I'm happy with it and I will never try to change it
It's great that you're happy with your deep baritone voice. Embrace your unique sound, and remember that preferences are subjective. Focus on refining your technique and using your voice effectively. Confidence in your voice can lead to success in singing and life.
In relaxed conversation my voice fluctuates in pitch from A-G. With Hz from 90-120. What am I?
As a baritone myself, is it normal for me to only be able to sing along with female artists and rarely male artists? I mean everyone seems to be a tenor, and to sing songs comfortably I most often sing along with mezzos and hardly ever sing songs by people like Justin Beiber or Shawn Mendez. Is this normal for my voice type? (btw this doesn't mean I'm not happy with my voice, I'm quite satisfied and happy with it)
When considering your vocal range when determining your voice type do you take into consideration your head voice and whistle notes?
artist_around _the_block, the following video may prove helpful - ruclips.net/video/mNppbS_p5qA/видео.html
I'm reasonabye certain I have perfect pitch and I do have a hard time singing a song in a different key if it is only a step or two away from the way I originally heard it. Just testing against my Piano I think i can cover most of the male vocal range which isn't really helping with my confusion.
Mate, you're a legend. I'm very happy to hear you say all these things. I struggled to sing high pop songs for years and years, often straining, wrecking and ruining my voice in the process, and eventually ended up transposing everything so I could sing it comfortably. But I always felt confused and bemused by my need to lower everything, and for a long time - even now, still - felt it was a shortcoming and a handicap. I'd be interested in your lessons. Whereabouts are you? And would you do skype lessons or similar? Thanks heaps. Steve, Northern Rivers, NSW.
Hey, Steve. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I grew up on the Northern Rivers of NSW! I do offer online lessons. You can learn more here - www.djarts.com.au/
I’m a baritone and proud but I just watched this video to learn more about baritones
Thanks
Its encouraging
Gday Dr Dan, I have been doing the online course and finding it very helpful, you make sense to total beginner right off the bat, I'm very confused about where I can sing. I can sing a song around the b note, I think round middle c, feeling quite comfortable, but my wife will say I'm singing too high, yet it doesn't feel like it, is that possibly the top of my range ? I'm very much a beginner and only really hearing things like head voice and falsetto,belt and twang for the first time, I've noticed your speaking voice is quite high, is that an indication of someone's singing voice ?

Thanks dr. Dan that really helped me a lot I actually didn't know that you have dreams to sing like a baritone the light lyric tenor range of your voice is awesome too because I'm a baritone I'm always thinking about singing high notes the truth is I can whistle but it's just a little tough for me to do it on key
BJ, just be the best you that you can possibly be!
Dr Dan's Voice Essentials thank you so much and I will and I'll keep on singing
Dr Dan, i am subbed now because Tunde Adebimpe of TV on the Radio on the picture lol
So when does it start?
This, I needed to here. Even with having a wide range; I always default to the baritone range.
My daily range is C#2 to D5 and i have a really week falsetto that goes lower than my non-falsetto notes, anyone have any tips on how to develop my falsetto to get it higher, it currently goes from G3 to about G4.(see a lot of people getting it to up to A5 and so on)
Also i'm curious i once hit a perfect F5 without any tension in head voice which was really open and clean and that was a pure accident, any ideas how i can sing that note on command? because my range has been stuck on C#2 to D5 for like a year propbably because i dont really have a easily accesible head voice and its become more open but i want to hit those F5s :p
Also thank you Dan, wonderful video :)
I'm a transitioning baritone, I was a Tenor but dropped to baritone and will be one for my college audition
can you name few baritones who come from rock and metal genre ?
when I had a vocal cord noudles trouble I went to doctor and I was figured out as a Britone
At first I shocked but I admited it and I began to use the key changing when I sing
I think it is very important to every singer
And now I Can Use Middle high notes comfortably
I'm a baritone and I dramatic baritones. I want my voice to go even lower. I'm under the impression that I could be a Verdi Baritone because I have low timbre but quite husky and unique.
Dr Dan,
I have written music in a band situation and your words there were spot on, I wrote songs with my range in mind and it worked for me. However since then I have gone back to classical training. I have found that I have the Baritone notes but lack “the Boom” and yet my Tenor range goes to B flat 5. My teacher told me not to fixate on what I am or what I’m not and just sing what I can sing. This doesn’t help at all though when you walk into an audition and the panel takes 1 look at you and says oh here’s a lovely big framed big chested Baritone, it irritates me because I’m not obsessed with singing high as you suggest. But I do have four octaves. So why shouldn’t I want to sing both if I can sing both well?
My voice goes from a D2 in low notes, C5 in Mixed belt, G5 in falsetto(D2-C5-G5) Do you think I’m a baritone or tenor?
baritenor maybe,for tenor is quite hard to sing D2 in chest.
My voice is D2-G4 in chest and my head voice is C4-D5 I think I’m a low baritone but I just started working on strengthening my vocal chords and my E4 F4 F#4 and G4 are slowly getting easier to sing so hopefully I can increase my range a bit
