However people often think you aren't a bass unless your voice is as deep as Glenn Millers, which just isn't true, people often don't realize that you don't need to be a Basso Profundo to be a bass
@@FadikMuryanakqThe tone that he sings is a G1. I was referring to his speaking voice earlier, specifically the "do" in "Basso Profundo". After listening to it a few more times the "do" sounds more like a Bb1 to me now.

I agree. Some say "profundo," because they say it in Spanish. In reality, if you say "basso" you would have to say "profondo." It's true. It happens that nowadays there is a fashion to say things in any way and it would seem that everything is fine, haha. I just wanted to be fashionable, hahaha.
@@Fredixxlfull Actually is in the Latin language, but it means < spread, pour out, scatter> And the Spanish language is Latin-rooted. :D Listen to < Oh, wie will ich triumphieren!> sung by Josef Greind in 1954 from an opera by Mozart < Die Entführung aus dem Serail, K 384 > can also be found in You Tube.
Hello! Yes, I know him but in these things you have to make an important differentiation. There are many that sound wonderful but need a microphone, otherwise you can't hear what he sings. Glenn Miller stands on a stage with no microphones and they hear him from the front row to the back and he makes them cringe (haha). There are several tricks with the voice when you have amplification but from my point of view that is "cheating".
@@bradycall1889 Yes, I don't know what they call this way of making bass notes (my language is Spanish), but it is not the normal pathway of the vocal cords. I think some call it "sub harmonics" but I think this only refers to notes and can be done with the vocal cords as well. The case that amazes me and it is not clear to me how he does it is Mr. Ken Turner. He makes really low notes, but always with a microphone. Mr. Miller has a legitimate deep powerful voice with vocal chords. Greetings from Argentina!
48,995 Hz - per the title of tis video, would be ULTRAsonic - more than 2 x the *highest frequency audible to humans. G1, on the other hand is 48.999 Hz- 3 notes above the lowest bass guitar note (E1, which is 41.203 Hz).
Hello! I understand what you're saying. It happens that in the country where I live (Argentina) and also in others, the punctuation marks are different than in the US and other countries. Here the comma (,) is used to separate the integers from the decimals and the period (.) to separate the thousands. I don't know if Google's translation made this understandable, ha! If you consider this you will see that we agree. Greetings and good luck!
This video is a part of a longer one (th-cam.com/video/pSU6DdPi0K4/w-d-xo.html) Possibly the editor I used for some technical reason that I don't know has altered the sound a bit. The original is a G1. Regards!
philip elwood JD Sumner wasn't nearly this low. Miller has been recorded singing a G1 over an entire choir multiple times, JD Sumner only ever got that low with his mouth practically swallowing the microphone.
+iamQuiliamQuil I met JD Sumner once and it was very strange how naturally low his speaking voice was. It was surreal. Honestly to be fair, he was never really required to do what other trained oktavists do without such amplification. He didn't have the same resonance but of course he didn't really need it. Who knows what would've happened if he had the same vocal training early on?
+randyjsing JD's speaking voice almost sounds like vocal fry. I think maybe he had some long ass vocal cords but maybe didn't have the air support to get the projection out of them.
Rodeo Rodeo Because some of these "basso profundis" cant project over a choir or even singing alone. Their voice is so quiet that they need a microphone. A lot of dudes can croak low notes in a mic. These real oktavists are different, theyre able to hit these notes loud and resonant, over a whole choir of people singing without any amplification.
Well sorry to make you scared but when Miller was about me and your age his voice was a tenor then he hits puberity hes a damn basso profundo when we grow up we will be tenors...
neil johnson that is not true why would you guys change to tenors? It’s possible, but definitely not likely. Having an Eb2 at 13 is a good sign he will be a low bass or profundo.
You don't need to be a basso profondo to chant like Tibetan monks. They use a different technique, with the false vocal chords to go low, it's not classical chest voice.
@@mcmerry2846 Not necessarily, they can be all timbres from tenor to bass but their technique is throat singing which sound a lot stronger than regular singing but it's also incredibly difficult to get it done good.
Imagine if that lady asked Zlatopolsky to give an Impressive low note... Dude woulda vibrated the entire building... Glenn Miller can hit lows, but not all that powerful in comparison to Mikhail
@@patheddles4004 because there are people with voices that are more powerful than his at those lowest registers, and he might not consider himself up to those standards
Yeah, it's the rarest classification. But this guy here, is a very low Basso Profundo, a strong Oktavist. You can be a basso profondo without being as low as him.
The naivete of that woman irritated me when she compared Glenn to a monk's throat singing, especially because they are singing the fundamental an octave higher than he does... 🤦♂️
Yes, the technique that those monks use is that of sub harmonics, which is not a natural note made with the vocal cords. It is a technique that in many cases sounds very good but it is not a true voice. If you hear them talk, many of them sound more like young ladies.
@@Fredixxlfull Sort of, but it's actually called kargyraa, which is different than subharmonics. In kargyraa, one vibrates their false folds with extreme forceful tension, which does produce a note an octave lower like in subharmonics; however, with subharmonics they are produced by extreme relaxation, and the false folds are actually not vibrating at all. Honestly, I'm still confused as to how subharmonics are mathematically possible. I'm starting to believe that the human voice's fundamental is way deeper in pitch than the actual note heard, and that when one sings a subharmonic they are possibly just equalizing their voice. In other words, the lower frequency is always there, but overpowered by an overtone. If we think about it, a single bass in choir singing the bass part is always there, but in order for the bass part to be heard, you would need to equalize the sound by adding more basses. Add a lot more basses to the choir, and all of a sudden the bass part went from present but inaudible to the audience to present and audible. Of course this is just a theory or even more of a hypothesis, but it makes a lot more sense than an actual subharmonic existing off of the fundamental.
@@hypercubemaster2729 What happens is that what is considered "human voice" is the sound produced by the vocal cords. There are several that make very low notes, but do not do it with the vocal cords. They achieve a vibration in another place, surely in the throat and that shocking sound is not a sung sound, that is not made with the vocal cords. I have seen some make very low and strong notes making the air go from the outside to the inside. When I was younger I could do it, it doesn't work anymore. I don't think it's good to do it. As for what you say about the fundamental note, all sounds have a fundamental note and a different composition of harmonics that are what give the characteristic sound to each thing. If two people sing the same note, the sound is not the same and it is due to the composition of harmonic waves. This can be seen on an oscilloscope. As for the bass of a chorus, if you equalize by removing mids and treble and increase the bass, you will hear the bass a little better.
@@Fredixxlfull Right; those are the false folds that are vibrating. Kargyraa is what you are referring to that the monks do. It isn't good for the voice, nor does it sound remotely pleasant; however, the sounds created are able to be projected an incredible amount. As for two people singing the same note, yes, I am aware of the differences in their "timbres" that that will both have. A bass trying to hit an F4 may sound a lot more 'trumpetlike' than a tenor that is extremely comfortable singing the note, as they will have to start guiding the sound out of their chest and up through their nose and facial cavities faster than the tenor would. As for the bass in a choir, that is pretty much what I said as well, lol. You add more basses to equalize the sound, which is equivalent to removing a lot of mid and treble voices.

the lowest note i can really sing would probably be a C2, but i can only sing it with resonance and such in the morning after i wake up.
the way to make it sound resonant is to open up your throat (just like the feeling you get when you yawn) and make sure there is no air/sound coming out of your nose, and that might seem weird to think about, but just try to replicate the feeling you get when you yawn, and just exhale like you were yawning.
while exhaling, start to produce a note, any note, just not a low one. if you can't tell your doing it right, just pinch your nose with your fingers and try it again, if you don't feel any vibration in your nose, then you got it right.
this is a good start, but if your really interested in sing, i would try voice lessons, preferable someone who specialises in voice and singing, not just any musician.

@@Fredixxlfull Actually is in the Latin language, but it means < spread, pour out, scatter>
And the Spanish language is Latin-rooted. :D
Listen to < Oh, wie will ich triumphieren!> sung by Josef Greind in 1954 from an opera by Mozart < Die Entführung aus dem Serail, K 384 > can also be found in You Tube.
Oh! What you tell me is very interesting. Thanks for your comment. Greetings and happy 2024!@@karel-de-Grote

Here you have another basso profundo: th-cam.com/video/xtAltg0ZIrY/w-d-xo.html
Hello! Yes, I know him but in these things you have to make an important differentiation. There are many that sound wonderful but need a microphone, otherwise you can't hear what he sings. Glenn Miller stands on a stage with no microphones and they hear him from the front row to the back and he makes them cringe (haha). There are several tricks with the voice when you have amplification but from my point of view that is "cheating".
@@Fredixxlfull Good point, yes.
@@Cubasenet33 🤔👍
@@Fredixxlfull Yes I agree with you. I think Mr Storms is a basso cantante using fry.
@@bradycall1889 Yes, I don't know what they call this way of making bass notes (my language is Spanish), but it is not the normal pathway of the vocal cords. I think some call it "sub harmonics" but I think this only refers to notes and can be done with the vocal cords as well. The case that amazes me and it is not clear to me how he does it is Mr. Ken Turner. He makes really low notes, but always with a microphone. Mr. Miller has a legitimate deep powerful voice with vocal chords. Greetings from Argentina!

It's a G1
BenBistro004 no dip it says it in the title
No it’s not it’s a flat G#
Why is he wearing a tuxedo?
48,995 Hz - per the title of tis video, would be ULTRAsonic - more than 2 x the *highest frequency audible to humans. G1, on the other hand is 48.999 Hz- 3 notes above the lowest bass guitar note (E1, which is 41.203 Hz).
Hello! I understand what you're saying. It happens that in the country where I live (Argentina) and also in others, the punctuation marks are different than in the US and other countries. Here the comma (,) is used to separate the integers from the decimals and the period (.) to separate the thousands. I don't know if Google's translation made this understandable, ha! If you consider this you will see that we agree. Greetings and good luck!
OH, ok, that's interesting - didn't know that- sorry! @@Fredixxlfull
@@catkeys6911 OKAY. Everything is more than good. Greetings!
Download vocal pitch monitor app and see if its G1 or not
The mad thing is, I’ve seen Chris McCafferty sing down to a B1 😳
Hard to believe.
@@MultiKamil97 it was a good day for him. Got scratchy towards the end but he reached it
His voice is lower than my BURP
Hahahahaha!
sounds like G#1
This video is a part of a longer one (th-cam.com/video/pSU6DdPi0K4/w-d-xo.html) Possibly the editor I used for some technical reason that I don't know has altered the sound a bit. The original is a G1. Regards!
Darth Vader Anyone?
Yes JD could do this and so could Glenn Miller and Ivan Rebroff and a host of others with more volumn
philip elwood JD Sumner wasn't nearly this low. Miller has been recorded singing a G1 over an entire choir multiple times, JD Sumner only ever got that low with his mouth practically swallowing the microphone.
+iamQuiliamQuil I met JD Sumner once and it was very strange how naturally low his speaking voice was. It was surreal. Honestly to be fair, he was never really required to do what other trained oktavists do without such amplification. He didn't have the same resonance but of course he didn't really need it. Who knows what would've happened if he had the same vocal training early on?
randyjsing Perhaps. I guess we shall never know.
But yeah...Glenn's the real deal, no doubt.
+randyjsing JD's speaking voice almost sounds like vocal fry. I think maybe he had some long ass vocal cords but maybe didn't have the air support to get the projection out of them.
I guess he ate a frog for Lurch, and downed it with a tuba.
He just went lower than JD Sumner?!?!
Kyle Duffy Lol, JD Sumner hited G0. Here's a G1
OK. J.D. need microphone. G.M. not.
@@Fredixxlfull How does a microphone affect how low/deep you can sing?
Rodeo Rodeo Because some of these "basso profundis" cant project over a choir or even singing alone. Their voice is so quiet that they need a microphone. A lot of dudes can croak low notes in a mic. These real oktavists are different, theyre able to hit these notes loud and resonant, over a whole choir of people singing without any amplification.
Its weird he is able to hit so powerful low notes- he is quite small guy while most basses looks like thick tower lmao
He is not a small guy lol he's 6'1
@@alexanderabdalla5517 most basses are tall. Zlatopolsky was apparently somewhat short though.
@@alexanderabdalla5517Zlatopolsky was 5’7/‘5’8
@@thomasoneill4386 Which is of course short for an exceptionally low pitched basso profondo.
Basses have more testosterone. Height is not very relevant.

That was not a G1 but an Ab1
It’s a flat G#
I'm 13 and i can sing an D#2 so..., i think if my voice continues changing, i'll be a basso profundo, right? I want it :'(
Well sorry to make you scared but when Miller was about me and your age his voice was a tenor then he hits puberity hes a damn basso profundo when we grow up we will be tenors...
neil johnson that is not true why would you guys change to tenors? It’s possible, but definitely not likely. Having an Eb2 at 13 is a good sign he will be a low bass or profundo.
What’s your lowest now?
@@chrisrutledge8170 Well he was referring to the testosterone changes in men between ages 12-40.
@@chrisrutledge8170 Has a male with more testosterone has a deeper voice.
You don't need to be a basso profondo to chant like Tibetan monks. They use a different technique, with the false vocal chords to go low, it's not classical chest voice.
Yeah, and they don't have a bass timbre, they sound high but pitched
@@mcmerry2846 Not necessarily, they can be all timbres from tenor to bass but their technique is throat singing which sound a lot stronger than regular singing but it's also incredibly difficult to get it done good.
Or a belch

Bet the really big fat guy next to him has a soprano voice
He's a lyric tenor if I'm not mistaken.
I love that little look at the camera. That's the look of "Let's see how many ovaries I just caused to explode"
That was a flat G#1, not a G1
Faudrait que son voisin arrête de lever la fourchette 😮
Imagine if that lady asked Zlatopolsky to give an Impressive low note... Dude woulda vibrated the entire building... Glenn Miller can hit lows, but not all that powerful in comparison to Mikhail
So.... He's a Russian soprano.
He speaks like he constantly has sulfur hexachloride in his lungs. Or is it hexafluoride, that heavy gas?
Nope, that's he's actual voice
Impressive, even if it's an A flat. Not G.
What is his speaking voice lol
Basso Profundo or Oktavist.
Its called a bassar profoondar
he would never call himself a true basso profundo
Wait, why not?
@@patheddles4004 because there are people with voices that are more powerful than his at those lowest registers, and he might not consider himself up to those standards
@@henrymccue2922 definitely a basso profundo, he may not consider himself a contrabass or true oktavist
@@jonathanw1106 oktavist is a different classification for eastern european choral works
Um he never said that about himself.
Is basso profundo rare?
신비 Very
Yeah, it's the rarest classification. But this guy here, is a very low Basso Profundo, a strong Oktavist. You can be a basso profondo without being as low as him.
Yes they're quite rare.
The naivete of that woman irritated me when she compared Glenn to a monk's throat singing, especially because they are singing the fundamental an octave higher than he does... 🤦♂️
Yes, the technique that those monks use is that of sub harmonics, which is not a natural note made with the vocal cords. It is a technique that in many cases sounds very good but it is not a true voice. If you hear them talk, many of them sound more like young ladies.
@@Fredixxlfull Sort of, but it's actually called kargyraa, which is different than subharmonics. In kargyraa, one vibrates their false folds with extreme forceful tension, which does produce a note an octave lower like in subharmonics; however, with subharmonics they are produced by extreme relaxation, and the false folds are actually not vibrating at all.
Honestly, I'm still confused as to how subharmonics are mathematically possible. I'm starting to believe that the human voice's fundamental is way deeper in pitch than the actual note heard, and that when one sings a subharmonic they are possibly just equalizing their voice. In other words, the lower frequency is always there, but overpowered by an overtone. If we think about it, a single bass in choir singing the bass part is always there, but in order for the bass part to be heard, you would need to equalize the sound by adding more basses. Add a lot more basses to the choir, and all of a sudden the bass part went from present but inaudible to the audience to present and audible. Of course this is just a theory or even more of a hypothesis, but it makes a lot more sense than an actual subharmonic existing off of the fundamental.
@@hypercubemaster2729
@@hypercubemaster2729 What happens is that what is considered "human voice" is the sound produced by the vocal cords. There are several that make very low notes, but do not do it with the vocal cords. They achieve a vibration in another place, surely in the throat and that shocking sound is not a sung sound, that is not made with the vocal cords. I have seen some make very low and strong notes making the air go from the outside to the inside. When I was younger I could do it, it doesn't work anymore. I don't think it's good to do it. As for what you say about the fundamental note, all sounds have a fundamental note and a different composition of harmonics that are what give the characteristic sound to each thing. If two people sing the same note, the sound is not the same and it is due to the composition of harmonic waves. This can be seen on an oscilloscope. As for the bass of a chorus, if you equalize by removing mids and treble and increase the bass, you will hear the bass a little better.
@@Fredixxlfull Right; those are the false folds that are vibrating. Kargyraa is what you are referring to that the monks do. It isn't good for the voice, nor does it sound remotely pleasant; however, the sounds created are able to be projected an incredible amount.
As for two people singing the same note, yes, I am aware of the differences in their "timbres" that that will both have. A bass trying to hit an F4 may sound a lot more 'trumpetlike' than a tenor that is extremely comfortable singing the note, as they will have to start guiding the sound out of their chest and up through their nose and facial cavities faster than the tenor would.
As for the bass in a choir, that is pretty much what I said as well, lol. You add more basses to equalize the sound, which is equivalent to removing a lot of mid and treble voices.
Its a G#1 hit hit, not a G. Still impressive though
Now you do understand he can go lower than that if he tries (or warms his voice).
Despite that I'm a four and half octave bass-baritone, he's got an impressive extended range hitting that low G.
corpse husband
Don't compare Glenn to corpse
Corpse speaks in perpetual fry with a low EQ filter lmfao don't put him in the same sentence as a true oktavist.
