Musical Ranges - TOML

Vocal ranges in singing are classified by pitch. Soprano covers the highest female range, alto the lower-middle female range, tenor the higher male range, baritone the middle male range, and bass the lowest male range. These ranges play important roles in choir and opera, with soprano and bass called outer voices, and alto and tenor called inner voices in harmony. Each range has its own frequency spectrum, bringing rich variety to musical expression.
