Baritone
Baritone (; ; ) is most commonly the type of male voice that lies between bass and tenor. Originally from the Greek βαρυτονος, meaning 'deep sounding', music for this voice is typically written in the range from the second A below middle C to the F above middle C (i.e. A2-F4)in choral music, and to G above middle C (i.e. A2 - G4) in operatic music, though it can be extended at either end.
