Tenor or high Baritone?
-
About a couple years ago I was singing in a friends band and at my peak I was able to hit tenor C with ease and even make it to the F tenor C after a warm up. As of now it's been a year since I last sung on a regular basis and now the highest note I can sing with ease is the Ab below tenor C and I'm horribly struggling with tenor C and and anything struggling that seems unreachable without my falsetto which sucks. This is basically the way i was before I took up singing on a regular basis but my low notes still haven't changed. I can audibly sing as low as two A's below middle C and I can go to the E below that in a mumble voice. I always figured I was a tenor because of my difficulty to audibly sing low notes.

Answer:
Whether you're a tenor or a baritone will mostly depend on the color of your voice, and as for the range, there are practices, and when you apply them properly, the range actually expands both ways. This is on a VERY long stick, but you should get someone to check if you're a baritone. Your range does sort of indicate that. I've also known people who started of with 22 as tenors and ended up as bases. Don't hold on to it too firmly

hello, well im not to sure what your question is but if were my guess i think 1. you wanna be able to reach and keep a high C or C5 and 2. you wanna clarify if your a tenor or not. so here's what I think: 1. the tenor and baritone have a range very much in common but of as we know the tenor is higher and the baritone is lower. The common baritone has a range from G2 to about F4, however, the smart baritone will train to A4 which a bit in tenor territory and there have also been famous baritones that have been/or able hit a high C such as Josh Groban or Placido Domingo. A baritone hitting a high C is rare but not unheard of. Also, there have been tenors who can go as low a B2 some even lower. 2. So with that said you might be thinking " well does that mean you could be both a baritone and tenor?" and the the answer is simply no. if you put a baritone that can hit a high next to a tenor who can do the same you and i would be quick to point out the true tenor. it's all about the vocal folds and how the move from note to note, the wider the folds (bairtone) will be able to hit the high C but not the same way the thinner folds (tenor) do. My advice is to seek out a well trained voice teacher to find out your real voice category because it's something that they will have to hear not read about. And as for the high C you have to work on your range in order to have it at your disposal (that's were singing lessons come in) but keep in mind that you can really hurt your voice if your vocal cords aren't built for a high C which is why it's important to know your voice category. hope this helps.
