We looked at the vocal ranges of these iconic singers — and they’re really impressive

By Sofia Rizzi

From Pavarotti to Prince, some of these musicians’ vocal ranges span a spectacular four octaves. A middle C on the piano can also be described as a C4 – and any number above or below that measures an octave. So, a C3 would be an octave below C4, while C5 would be an octave above. That considered, the vocal ranges seen here are nothing short of a miracle. Luciano Pavarotti is hailed as the world’s greatest tenor, and his impressive vocal range proves just that. In his prime, the larger-than-life tenor could hit an F5 – that’s an octave and a half above middle C. Then, there are those of musicians from the pop world. While David Bowie and Freddie Mercury both had ranges spanning four octaves, Prince could hit a gobsmacking B6. Beyoncé isn’t far off that either, with a versatile range starting at A2 and hitting E6. Plus, Lady Gaga’s earthy lower register allows her to hit a B flat 5. As heavenly and awe-inspiring as the high notes are, let’s not forget the lower register. Montserrat Caballé and Renée Fleming, for instance, can both reach an F sharp 3. Montserrat Caballé hits this note in Strauss’ opera Salome. But it’s Mariah Carey who takes the prize for the largest vocal range of all. She can reach a low F2 and hit an unbelievable G7, a note that dolphins would envy, and that only some dogs can hear.

What is the rarest singing voice?

countertenor A countertenor is a male singer who can sing as high as a soprano or mezzo-soprano. The countertenor is the rarest of all voice types.

A countertenor is a male singer who can sing as high as a soprano or mezzo-soprano. The countertenor is the rarest of all voice types. The countertenor was not originally an operatic voice type as historically it was the castrati who would sing the female operatic roles in an age when it was not proper for women to sing in the opera. Instead, countertenors were popular in religious choirs where women were also not allowed to participate. Today the countertenor is arguably the most profitable voice type, mainly due to rarity and lack of competition at auditions. Many baroque operas utilise the countertenor today due to many being written for castrati singers. The opera Giulio Cesare by Handel requires 4 countertenors to replace the castrati singers. Some modern operas also cast countertenors, such as Jonathon Dove's Pinocchio which really showcases the intricacies of the voice type. It's easy to mistake yourself for a countertenor as all male voices have an area in the voice called the falsetto. This is a high pitched area, usually quieter and softer in tone than the main voice. If the singer has trained his falsetto range well it can easily be mistaken for a countertenor voice.
