What is the counter?

Contral is a rare case of a deeper sounding female singing. Most of the time, female singers in this voice range are categorized under the name Mezzo-Soprano because it is between Mezzo-Soprano and Tenor. Male classic singers who have similar ranges are called Countertenors.

The beginnings of the contrast are returned to the 14th century and industry from the male counterpoint. In Europe of the 14th century, the counters were divided into two different categories. Contraratenor altus and Contrathenor bassus were Latin terms for one singer singing high and the other low.

In England, these conditions were changed to "countermeasures" during the 16th and 17th centuries. In Italy, however, this term has changed to "Conntralto". The males were the only sex that could be sung in the churches of the era, so the term "counter" was applied to them only.

In the later centuries, the female contraion of women became the involvement of women. Women have replaced the falsets of all men that were usually marked as “Castratos "or boys castrated before puberty. The term" contlalto "then became reserved strictly for women. Many of them create a unique color in medium registers and have sharper upper registers. Some teachers of vocal teachers, because of the challenges in identifying Contralos, sometimes let them sing too high, creating the potential for injury to vocal.

Some voice challenges are lack of resonance in creating perfect tonal color. It's because of tightening the language. Many Contraltos tend to switch in the middle registry through extreme respiratory pressure. Vocal lessons that teach the right breathing technique and the placement of the language can help singers avoid these tendencies.

in Opera, Contralo are divided into three vocal categories. Coloratura Contralo has a light voice with high dexterity and is very rare. Lyric Contralto is more common and slightly falls under the ability of Kolorates. Dramatic Constalos have the deepest voices with heavy tones and are as rare as Coloraturas.

One famous opera singer with contrablo voice was the legendary opera singer Marian Anderson. Another at the beginning of the 20th century was the Austrian opera star Ernestine Schumann-Heink. Some of the most popular pop and jazz singers of all time have been and are Contralted, although they did not have a formal designation of the vocal range. Judy Garland, Karen Carpenter, Nina Simone, Alicia Keys, Adele and Lady Gaga are some of the late and live singers who have this scary, unusual voice.
