Vocal fach

edited November 2021 in Off Topic
Hi
I couldn't find vocal fach in the category section.
I watched Ken videos on vocal fach, but it is unclear for me where i sit really, cab i get a little help on that
I am 21 year old male
When i speak i am around G#2 to Bb2 range
My lowest note is G2 , A2 after warming up, i don't have a bari voice weight for sure, my voice sounds something like Chester Benningtons voice(in regards of darkness and agility) maybe a little darker. My first passagio is around D4-Eb4(E4 after warming up), not sure for the second one but it should be somewhere around Bb4, since i just started volume 3, i haven't yet gotten to stretching my chest super high. My highest head voice note is F5
Some mornings i wake up i can go down to F2 but it is rare like 3-4 times in 3 months. So my confussion was that i have a high first passagio and i believed that i was a countertenor, but then again i can go down to G2 with not a lot of darkness/girth so does that make me lyric baritone?

  • Hi Wigs
    I read it but i still couldn't classify myself,my voice seems weird haha, and i know that with Kens academy it doesn't really matter, but i wanted to know for the sake of it 😁
  • Hi Wigs

    Nothing helped, if you would do me a favour and try and listen these two, i just messed around for a little so you can hear my voice color and tell me what do you think, if it is dramatic tenor or a lyric bari ...
    I am not warmed up, and the song that i sang in one of them is not in the key i just did it for showing of my voice. Sorry for the rought accent too 🙂

    P.S. i am with KTVA for about year and a half

  • These links need me to download them which I don't like doing. Even after listening to them I wouldn't be able to tell you what Fach you are because I don't know much about them myself except for the links I've shared and what the basic fachs are for guys and girls. Maybe someone will be able to help out.
  • @Elijah9 What you describe sounds almost identical to my own experience. 1st passagio at D#4 and 2nd at G#4, but it can travel upwards a lot when I am warm and don't make any mistakes. Lowest note G2-G#2, but when warm it is more like A2. I don't know if you were looking for the classical term, but basically I would say we sit in the mid tenor range. From a classical standpoint I don't know. Depends a lot how you move between notes. If you are agile and gentle on the sound it might be lyric tenor for example. That's the case for me.
    Ken described in a video that low tenors could feel the 1st passage way at C4 or C#4, so we are hovering above that. I can sqeak out a soprano C-C# in headvoice if I do the Divas workouts, but I still say the original voice type is mid tenor. Like it is mentioned in the course you can "earn" notes if you invest a lot of time in it and then you will be able to sing in another vocal fach, at least temporarily.
  • Thank you guys, i also believed i was somewhat mid/low tenor, cause i have some low range down to F# sometimes with decent amount of buzz, but i wouldn't say i am a bari cause i don't sound as Ken does.
  • Well it's possible that you are right in between two vocal Fachs. And normaly vocal Fach is messured in a range of two octaves if you have more. Then it's harder to tell where you are. I noticed that my self.
