Is there a website that provides audio samples? -- Toytoy 04:15, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Where is castrato on this chart?
The castrato is not a vocal range, so it would be difficult to include it on a range chart. Castratos had varying ranges; no every castrato had the same range. Some sang in the soprano range, some in the contralto range. The mezzo-soprano range was most common, as parts written originally for castrato are usually now-a-days sung comfortably by a mezzo-soprano. --DrG 22:39, 2005 May 18 (UTC)
--- Why on earth is not the alto a part of the vocal diagram? - Rich
--- Just wondering, why do the 'C1, c2' etc notes along the top have nothing to do with the same-looking definitions in Vocal_range? According to that article, soprano goes from C4 to A5, but according to this template it goes from c1 to a little over c3. EloiseMason 15:40, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
