Best Answer

In a standard SATB (Soprano/Alto/Tenor/Bass) choral arrangement, the soprano voice sings the highest vocal part written on the music staff. The soprano part is typically sung by a female, although male sopranos do exist in some men's groups. The soprano part is sometimes divided into multiple parts-Soprano 1 typically the highest, Soprano 2 lower, Soprano 3 even lower, etc.

If you can sing soprano but not hit the high notes are you a first or second soprano?

Depends how high you mean. If your talking about less complicated pieces with a short range to about an F then your prob a second, but if your talking about more complicated and higher pieces that go up to an A or High C then your probably a first, of course all in the choir sense. In opera and classical music a choir soprano is equivalent to an operatic contralto, in some cases. It all depends on the tessitura. But in choir a 1st soprano is the highest and a 2nd is the middle(mezzo-soprano).

What type of soprano are you?

I am a second soprano but I know that I could sing the first soprano part if my choir teacher would let me. A first soprano must be able to sing the very high notes in a song while a second soprano sings slightly lower notes but they are still pretty high. It does not really matter for you to know that I am a 2nd soprano it matters what type of soprano you are.
