Soprano
This article is about the singing voice part. For other uses, see Soprano (disambiguation).A soprano is a singer with a voice range from approximately middle C (C4) to "high A" (A5) in choral music, or to "soprano C" (C6, two octaves above middle C) or higher in operatic music. In four part chorale style harmony the soprano takes the highest part which usually encompasses the melody.Male singers whose voices have not yet changed are known either as "boy sopranos" or in church traditions as trebles, whilst adult male sopranos are known as countertenors or sopranists.
