Start Jamming...
Hi guys, so you're here to find out what voice classification you are.
Are you a bass, are you a baritone or a tenor?
Now, there are actually a lot of different factors that come into play
when figuring out exactly what voice type you are,
but we're here to give you a very quick basis on which to make your judgement.
We're just going to go from range.
So if you fit within one of these ranges, then you're more likely to be one of these voice types.
So, have a sing-along, see where you feel more comfortable
and then from [D#] there you've got the basis for your voice type.
So if you're a bass you should fit very comfortably into this scale.
We're going to sing it on an [E] R.
See how it feels.
[F#]
Haaah, [C#] [E]
breathe.
[F#]
[D#] [Em]
Good, and that [N] would be the bottom up to the top end of your range.
It doesn't mean that you can't sing outside of that if you're a bass,
but that's where you're most comfortable generally if you're a bass singer.
Right, baritones.
This is the range that you should be able to [G] sing.
Starting on an R.
[A]
[F#] [G]
Haaah, breathe.
[A]
[Bm] [G]
[N] Excellent.
And finally, if you are a tenor, you should be able to comfortably sit in this [C] range.
[D]
Haaah, breathe.
[Dm] [C]
[D]
[A] [Em] [Cm]
[N] So there you have it, three ranges, bass, baritone or tenor.
Now, actual voice classification, it comes down to where the warmth of your voice is,
where the breaks are in your voice.
And even if you are naturally a bass singer, if you have a natural bass range,
it doesn't mean that you can't sing baritone songs.
It doesn't mean you can't extend your range and become a tenor singer.
So it's just something to give you an idea of where you sit in case somebody asks you what voice classification you are.
So you have an idea, but it doesn't restrict you.
So don't think of this as your restriction to a certain type of song or a certain range.
Don't forget there are lots of videos on this channel that will help you with things like range extension
and strengthening the upper part of your voice when you're on falsetto.
So do take some time to look at the other videos here on this channel.
