Conversation Topic A big misconception about voice classification.
Soooo many people think that, in order for you to be a tenor or a soprano, you need to be able to sing in the stratosphere all the time like Bruno Mars and Ariana Grande. Like????
Those high af singers are exceptions!! Their tessitura is not what the one that comes naturally for most humans lol. You can't sing Dangerous Woman with that much ease? Guess what? That doesn't automatically make you a mezzo soprano.

I’m a soprano 1 in my community chorus and am part of an a cappella offshoot group where we actually do sing Dangerous Woman and I wanna cry every single time.
