The general vocal range of an adult female soprano is C 4 –C 6 (highlighted), with notes unreachable by an average Treble marked in red (B 5 –C 6).. Most trebles have a comfortable range from the A below "middle C" (A 3, 220 Hz) to the F one and a half octaves above "middle C" (F 5, 698 Hz), [10] roughly corresponding to an adult male baritone range, up one octave.

A countertenor (also contra tenor) is a type of classical male singing voice whose vocal range is equivalent to that of the female contralto or mezzo-soprano voice types, generally extending from around G 3 to D 5 or E 5, [1] although a sopranist (a specific kind of countertenor) may match the soprano's range of around C 4 to C 6.
