LOL, but if you want to listen to a light contralto. Listen to Anastasia Prikhodko. She is the "lightest" contralto I've ever heard and she's by no means light. Toni isn't even a very low mezzo. She just has a dark color. Comfort is also another thing that I understand changes from individual rather than vocal classifications. Jazmine Sullivan's voice is a prime example of a mezzo-soprano's versatility. She has the thickest voice I've heard on a mezzo-soprano but is also one of the most agile mezzo-soprano's I've ever heard. At first listen you'd think she's a contralto but she has an incredibly bright belting register and small-to medium sized volume output. She simply a light-lyric mezzo. <br /><br />Whitney and Celine are both sopranos and Whitney was a strong mid-belter (A4-E5) but both have passagios too high to be mezzos. If they were mezzos with their vocal colors they'd sound much lower. <br /><br />Also, I was not saying they sound alike, I was saying that their voices sit similarly despite their differing vocal colors and approaches to singing. What I'm trying to explain is that the mezzo-soprano fach is incredibly wide, ranging from incredibly high mezzo-soprano's like Beyonce to incredibly low mezzo-soprano's like Jazmine Sullivan. <br /><br />Crack a listen to this. <br /><br /> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBCysiuNXBQBlack Robinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-22478000126360118182013-12-16T12:35:57.736+00:002013-12-16T12:35:57.736+00:00I am a contralto... Toni Braxton, Anita, Tina Turn...I am a contralto... Toni Braxton, Anita, Tina Turner, Cher songs are in my field of comfortability. Singing songs in the field of mezzos sopranos such as Whitney, Barbara Streisand, Betty Middler, Celine, Charice, is pushing my voice to different placement and technique.<br /><br /><br />I can base contraltos and mezzos based on how I can sing it.<br /><br /><br />Anita songs are not difficult to sing for me, and even her head voices I can reach on full voice in "caught up in rupture" and "sweet love". She is a contralto. And before you say anything I am not a mezzo I am a proven Contralto.<br /><br /><br />Many contralto such as Anita Baker are light voice and not all contraltos sound like Cher. Or Momma Thornton. Also just because Toni Braxton is capable of dramatic changes and can reach mezzo and soprano notes does not change the fact that she is best comfortable in her low range, she even said she can't sing Whitney songs because her voice is not a ''mezzo'' look up the video where they interview her in the clive davis party. Her mother is an opera singer who had trained all the sisters to sing. Toni also does not sound like Anita since her tone is heavier and deeper with the capability of staying in the low 2's longer. The contralto voice is very hard to explain Because many mezzos can mimic the lower notes but there is a difference when you hear them sing. A true contraltos voice like Toni's low notes should base in her chest "let it flow" "he wasn't man enough" "Be my baby" and mezzos cannot without losing air or cracking. Belts also sound robust and thick like Toni and head voices are heavy as oppose to a light ring or pierce.<br /><br /><br />I know I gave you an earful but Contralto voices are the hardest to explain.<br /><br /><br />People Always compare Toni to Anita but she sound more like Cher to me.<br /><br /><br />Listen to Toni Braxton's song called "Woman" Or "If I have to wait" I sang this song for Rich Fink to showcase my coloratura Contralto ability for vocal classifying in harmony.<br /><br /><br />Both Anita and Toni are contraltos with two very different classification.Nicolet Fosternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-45989328788202960672013-12-13T11:05:44.436+00:002013-12-13T11:05:44.436+00:00I wouldn't compare her to Beyonce because Beyo...I wouldn't compare her to Beyonce because Beyonce is not the best example of a mezzo. She has a very soprano-like voice in every register. A better comparison would be between Anita and Anouk, even Toni Braxton. All three of the women have thick, womanly timbres, with bright medium sized volume output. Also Anouk can sing quite well in mezza voce which if, I recall, is what Anita uses too. Both women have extraordinary mixes but Anouk sits slightly lower than Anita surprisingly and its quite clear that she is a lyric mezzo. <br /><br /><br />But I understand and respect your views. I just don't consider tessituras in pop as a dead give away for contraltos. If the color isn't uniformly androgynous all the way up to C#5 then I doubt I'm listening to a contralto.Black Robinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-15696195107626621682013-12-13T09:49:16.859+00:002013-12-13T09:49:16.859+00:00I can see that, but she is a light contralto to me...I can see that, but she is a light contralto to me. Yes she has brights midrange, but she also has clear and strong contralto low notes. And her lows sound androgynous not forced.<br /><br /><br />Comparing her to lyric mezzos like Celine, or Beyonce her voice does not pierce it enough as a true mezzo would, her voice still carries the weight up until she utilizes her head and forced falls. voice.<br /><br /><br />Her natural and comfortable placement screams contralto to me.Nicolet Fosternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-55963508771558796452013-12-13T02:00:24.754+00:002013-12-13T02:00:24.754+00:00She strikes me as a mezzo regardless.
