I love the close ups here. Muscles not normally used by most citizens are being used. Nice.

@EmilyGreene1984. If you believe this is an insult, no problems at all, I will surely not make you change your opinion. But think about this: "androgynous voice" may have a lot of meanings, but definitely NOT it' s a male voice or "sounding like a man".

[Omnihilism]

@EmilyGreene1984 . I am Ornadheim. Sincerely, I hardly understand your message. Rossini and other composers wrote that. Well? You have risen up objective matters I will never deny (and I don' t even want to do that). But, to my ears, contralto register sounds like an androgynous voice, and always will do. That' s why I like it so much: something unique, rare, hard to find.

[EmilyGreene1984]

@Ornadheim That actually is a bit insulting because women, who are contraltos, try to put forward the feminine aspect of their voice. Even composers like Rossini wrote that it is a common mistake to think of the female contralto as sounding like a man.

kraljica je:)

@andreasscholl She is a Serbian one!

[Ornadheim]

I sincerely believe that contralto is the best wonderful female voice... it sounds quite androgynous, a wonderfulm and charming union.

Instead, I got fed up with sopranos.

And that's not saying anything bad about sopranos.

@FDGDSFg332 Yes, in opera the lowest female fach is contralto. Alto is just a vocal range in choral music. Voice type in opera has to do not only with range but with the weight and color of the voice, any female could sing alto in a choir, regardless of her true voice type.
