Atlos and Great Singers.
by horne_jeffrey | created - 05 Jan 2014 | updated - 05 Jan 2014 | PublicThis list is dedicated to all the Altos and the other great singers out there. I didn't forget about you. Alto is the second highest vocal range for females and the highest vocal ability for males. Alto is slightly deeper than soprano. Soprano is a softer tone similar to a singing bird. Whereas, Atlo has more power behind the voice. Both are great sounds without unique and distinguished singing characteristics.

I do not know if she is an Alto or Soprano. I think she might be both. I leaning toward Soprano because of her singing performance in Jar of Hearts. I got to ask around and research to see if she is an Alto or Soprano. For now, I will say she is both to play it safe. If you listen to Jar of Hearts, she was holding hose notes for a long time.
