    This why more vocal coaches and singers should be more open minded when training their voices . It's s better not to fit students into a box, but rather aid them in achieving their full potential.

      But countertenor is debatable between a real voice type and a type of role within opera. Interestingly, I haven't made up my mind yet on whether or not it is an actual voice type. I am just hesitant to use that term to describe anyone. A lot of "countertenors" out there are actually baritones or at least regular tenors using falsetto.

Also Lisa is a coloratura and I'm more apt to conclude that you have not received any coloratura training. So your voice is not similar to hers. Though you can compare your voice to singers like Mariah (modal voice alone not whistles) and the rest to determine your voice type

I have taught 75 different contrabass/oktavist voices and 100% all of them thought they were tenors at the beginning of training. Most "tenors" these days are really undeveloped contrabass voices (contrabasso contros). Try coming up with some logic other than a straw man. It's as easy as the equation f_0=c/2f and x=-b+or-sqrt(b^2-4ac)/2a because it is. Why would Dixon be able to vocalize at a C0, literally 16 Hz, when speaking and cause a nearby organ pipe nearby to resonate on accident?

    For example, Whitney is a true sopranos whilst Mariah is not.

      Mariah is indeed a soprano, just not really...well-developed, nor well-rounded, even at her really best

    I do find Rachelle's way of singing very annoying, like she's always just showing of never just singing a line

      I think you’ll like her more on her albums. Quite restrained there.

      Yea listen to her albums. Plus because her background is jazz, scatt, composition so she uses her voice accordingly. He album first instrument says everything. She stretches and shows the capability of human voice to do everything in a song.

      I thought I was the only who felt that way lol. She is amazing can probably out sing alot of people, and sometimes I do appreciate the extra what you don't get on the album. But I do find it to become annoying at a certain point, I love listening to the albums they are fire. Rachelle should have been bigger, but that's not mainstream material they like cookie cutter voices.

      @shabrethajennings7291 she has a song called "individuality, can I be me?". So if that doesn't some it up. Everyone can't sing like whitney Houston or life would be boring. Look at American idol, they all sound like clones. I can't listen to these people. Rachelle is very different. I wish my voice could do half of what she could. She is the example to follow, she makes beats with her voice, can sound like numerous instruments etc. That's why she has the album called "first instrument" the industry is suppressing the human voice/instrument. This why she can basically shit on any singer on stage because she can literally do it all and more. She can sing with the greats such as wyntonMarsalis, george duke, etc and just do notes like an instrument, other singers would stand there and be lost..
