mezzo-soprano

A mezzo-soprano is a type of female singing voice with a range that falls between the soprano (higher) and contralto (lower). Typically, mezzo-sopranos can comfortably sing from about A3 to A5, allowing them to perform a variety of musical roles. The voice is characterized by a warm, rich, and full tone, often suited for expressing depth and expressiveness. Mezzo-sopranos frequently portray supporting characters, such as’s mothers, seductresses, or villains, in opera and musical theater, and their versatile vocal quality makes them an essential voice type in many ensembles.
