What is a baritone?
A baritone's vocal range lies between the bass and the tenor voice types. They often portray characters of strength, authority, or a complex emotional range. Music for this voice is typically written in the range from the second F below middle C to the F above middle C in choral music (F2 to F4), and from the second A below middle C to the A above middle C (A2 to A4) in operatic music. Some famous baritones include Nathan Gunn, Josh Groban, Bryn Terfel, George Hearn and Dmitri Hvorostovsky.
