    weird to think about that Geoff is naturally a baritone, but after MANY years of hard work he's increased his range to bass and tenor as well, and can even go basso profondo and subharmonic when need be. despite him having a natural baritone range, he's achieved a very good sounding bass and tenor range without it sounding too forced. lot of hard work behind that voice!

    As far as I'm aware, the bass actually classes himself as a baritone with a bass range, jnone (the one who said your finished) is a baritone, Earl (the highest) is a definite tenor, as is eli the other one who is a lower tenor but still massive upper range. Also there are normally five but Earl left, and that last note was achieved through a subharmonic note, done by producing a pitch a fifth above your fundamental pitch with vocal fry combined with the fundamental producing the illusion of a note an octave lower, meaning his fundamental was an E2. Geoff (the bass) explains it better but that's the general gist, as does David larson. Hope this helps :)

    That wasn’t an E2 with the “illusion” of an E1, that WAS an E1! I don’t understand very well how subharmonics are produced, and I’m sure it does involve jumping an octave down from a starting note, but I heard that E1 frequency (~41 Hz) loud and clear!

    @@AllHailZeppelin Not exactly. I'm not completely sure what he's actually doing for the E1 here, but the simple subharmonic technique for an E1 would be to sing E2 and B2 together. Ear hears the two tones together, brain parses them as overtones, brain hallucinates the missing fundamental frequency for the E1 that it's hearing. We can't actually hear the difference, but I have friends who use spectral analysis to figure it out.

  • @patheddles4004
    @patheddles40043 жыл бұрын

    As a few people have noted, Geoff can sing the upper baritone range because he actually is a baritone - he just has a very rich voice and a great low extension. That's still not enough to get him down to E1 in modal voice though - his last two notes are using subharmonics, which he's really good at. Details get complex, but basically he sings a couple of higher notes together and makes us hallucinate a lower note that isn't actually there. For instance if you hear a clean E2 and B2 that are well tuned to each other, then your brain will hear them as overtones and will hallucinate the missing fundamental E1.

    Welcome to Voiceplay! The members of the group -- in this video at least -- are Earl Elkins -- he's the gentleman in the gray shirt with the beard. He's a high tenor, and unfortunately is no longer with the group. Eli Jacobson -- he's the gentleman in the red longjohns. He's also a tenor. Jesse "J" None -- he's the gentleman in the black jacket. He's a baritone is capable of hitting ridiculously high notes when he wants to. Layne Stein -- he's the beatboxer, but when allowed to sing -- which happens often enough -- is a baritone. He's also their primary arranger (and arranged this song). And finally, there's Geoff Castallucci, their basso profundo. He is, perhaps, the lowest voice in music right now. (Tim Faust of Home Free and Avi Kaplan, formerly of Pentatonix come close, but Geoff can go below both of them.) If you want to see them stretch their legs as a group normally, try their video "Boy Bands in Five Minutes", or one of their collaborations with Rachel Potter (the Moana Medley and the Little Mermaid Medley especially).

    Geoff isn't a basso profondo. I would say, he's a basso cantante with ridiculous low and high extensions. Geoff himself even said, that he's a bass-baritone... But, as we hear, he doesn't sound like a bass-baritone "naturally". He can go really high in chest (up to A4, maybe even higher) and even sing ± comfortably in bass-baritones tessitura, but he's "natural voice" sounds like a bass, but certainly not a basso profondo

Not as low as Geoff BUT I did get a G1 a couple of times. once in HS I was standing next to the piano in practice and we were learning a 23-25 page MASS in Latin and there were a couple G1s in it but the director had us singing the note above (I don't remember the note) but I tried it G1 and it resonated the strings in the piano and the director stopped looked at the pianist and asked if he hit the note. I waved and said I did it.. but that ended in college after I became a fireman and sucked a little too much smoke at a fire.

    Such a great song and reaction to it! The Santa was played by Pasquale Palazzolo who is Voiceplay's email marketing manager (not an actual singing member of the group) and is a relative of Geoff's through his wife Kathy (Pasquale's sister). Voiceplay singers are Geoff Castellucci (Bass), Earl Elkins Jr (Tenor 1), Eli Jacobson (Tenor 2), Layne Stein (Beat Boxing) and J. None (Baritone).

    Speaking of Geoff's talking voice, you should check out his reading of "The Night Before Christmas". Pretty much everyone I've ever seen reacting to Voiceplay, or Geoff Castellucci, has that same facial expression the first time they hear his depth. The subtitles on this video actually call his last note "subterranean". Also, believe it or not, they LOST "The Sing-Off" to Home Free.

    He may claim that, but a baritone that can hit Db2 in a chest voice isn't a baritone, they're a bass. I'm a pretty standard baritone and G2 is my default low note; F2 on a good day. Geoff can claim to be a baritone all he wants, but he might as well claim to be a soprano. His tessitura is in the bass range.

    @@victorleebhagad352 I'd say you're a bass with a good range, though I suspect you're attempting to screw with me by asking the question. But, taking the question at face value, I sang in choirs as a kid and teenager, and in a co-ed a capella madrigal group in high school. We had sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses doing standard 4-part harmonies in classical, romantic, and popular styles. For what it's worth, we performed as the back-up chorus for Andy Williams during one of his Christmas specials in front of 16,000 people, just so you don't think we were some average high school singers. We were actually good. Am I an expert? No, but I know a bass when I hear one. The thing is, none of the basses in our madrigal group were actually basses; we were all baritones. The lowest note we had to hit in any of the pieces we sang was a G2. The standard bass range for operatic basses is E2-E4, which fits perfectly with what you say your range is. Very few parts in operas, historically, require notes lower than E2. So, yeah, by the standards of opera, you're a bass.

    @@chrisd7047 Yeah,thought so,was searching for vids for voice classification,and when i tested myself,watched 2 of em,1 had 2/3 the the test of me bass,and the other 1/3 bari or tenor,then the other vid told me im a bass.My voice tone is kinda low,but its not as deep and rich like a bass,its more like a baritone kinda tone,when speaking natural,in the morning,relaxed,its between F2-F#2.My dad tells me to speak in a higher tone,to8 sound more friendly.Hahaha.....naw,i wouldnt screw you,im just seeking info and knowledge,im 15 btw. Acapella you said??Thats Amazing man! I didnt really pay attention to low notes,always trying to sing high notes in chest with poor technique,straining to sing tenor songs,could reach A4,but it'll sound like shit,like muffled.It was really foolish to strain,keep in mind,i did this while having hyperthyroid,it also for a fact prevents you from singing higher notes.Im almost fully recovered from thyroid. 3 days ago,i decided to decending sirens,trying to go as low as i can,i have been only singing about for 2 years,and i was only able to go down to F#2,but then after 3 days of trial for fun,i could go down to a solid E2 with resonance,D#2 is okay,but unstable and i cant hold it long,and then D2 and lower i break and vocal fry kicks in,as i told you,ive only started 3 days ago.I think ill try advancing to chesty-fry mix or subharmonics.And im gonna build my head voice,then learn mix to belt more safely. What about you Chris,you a baritone?And i wanna know the comfortable range for baritones.
