| Aaliyah |
Vocal Type: Mezzo-Soprano
Whistle Register: Yes
Whistle Register: Yes
Vocal Range: G2-E6 (3 Octaves 5 Note )
Vocal Pluses: Gorgeous sultry tone in the low and midrange with a beautifully, rich, warm colour that is mirrored in the head voice. Also able to sing complex vocal runs that could run through the different vocal registers.
A true talent. Never gets the recognition vocally that she deserves. Her acapella intro to "At Your Best" is like honey!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite AAliyah songs, without a doubt. Here is the link if other's haven't heard it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAXKmlqeO7A
ReplyDeleteI luv aaliyah my wife
ReplyDeleteIf you listen closely to Aaliyahs song,"The One I Gave My Hear To", you can hear her whistle notes towards the middle and end..
ReplyDeleteI know she's labeled as a mezzo here, but she always struck me as a soprano. Her voice was slightly thinner and higher timbred but sweet and light with a tendency to become shrill at times. She developed her lower register quite well, giving her excellent balance between her voice's different areas.
ReplyDeleteShe's a soprano... She lives in her head voice... That screams soprano to me.
ReplyDeleteAaliyah was definitely a soprano, couldn't agree any less. a mezzo-soprano would be Whitney's voice....wonder why i hardly listened to brandy and Monica. Aaliyah had that melody in the voice that only real singers have eg mariah carey.
ReplyDeleteI Agree Also She is Always Hitting Her High notes just right.
