I've been wondering...

I heard awhile ago that male Europeans in general have a higher pitched voice then that of American (or at least North American) males. Is this true?

Well, my choir teacher from last year said this, and it only recently came to mind. After all, you rarely here about tenors in the US, but a great many basses/baritones. While for Europe, I think I only have heard Nickbaldwin as a Baritone, I believe. The rest seem to be Tenors or higher.autoload wrote:I never heard that rumor before.

Basically, I suppose. Though in my choir, we had Sopranos 1 & 2, same with Altos, same with Tenors, then Bases were either Baritones or just regular bases, and some of them could hit a low G I believe.ignotus wrote:muy_thaiguy wrote:Well, my choir teacher from last year said this, and it only recently came to mind.

well I was a tenor 2 in my school choir, but that's equivalent of a baritone.
