What is this analogy Blank is to alto as tenor is to bass?

In this analogy, "blank" is to "alto" as "tenor" is to "bass." The relationship between alto and tenor is that they are both voice types within a choir or vocal ensemble, with alto typically singing higher than tenor. Similarly, bass is the counterpart to tenor, with bass voices typically singing lower than tenor voices. The analogy is drawing a parallel between the relationships of voice types within a vocal ensemble.

Is tenor higher than baritone?

Yes. The tenor is the highest male voice. However, a baritone can have the same range as a tenor, but the baritone will have a deeper, heavier sound and is more comfortable lower. Tenors have a higher, lighter sound and are more comfortable higher. The same applies to female voice (Soprano vs. Mezzo or Alto)

Who is the male tenor voice singer?

originally, yes tenor is male. but I was told that yes there is female tenors, just not alot like saprano, 2nd saprano, and alto. I was considered an alto last year, but after being assigned a solo, my director said i was more of a tenor than a alto, due to the fact that my solo was originally a tenor solo. I'm the only girl in my group that is a female tenor, so they are not many of us in choirs.


Which male voice sings higher tenor or bass?

To answer the question, the higher voice is the Tenor voice. The ranges for the most common ranges are as follows from low to high : baritone, bass, tenor, alto, soprano. Now, there are more complicated ranges out there that can confuse you such as mezzo, coloratura and so on. But the simplest answer for your question is that tenor voices are higher than bass voices but there are some male voices that range from bass to tenor and even alto as well as some that range from baritone to tenor.

Is a tenor saxophone better than an alto saxophone?

Well, that depends on your personal opinion. I have played and own both. So, make your own decision (the bolded bullets are the biggest differences):Both the Tenor and Alto are in the middle-range of pitch, so they are both very versatile instruments.Both have a very recognizable and quite beautiful (If I do say so myself) shape and sound.The Tenor can play lower notes than the Alto, while the Alto can play higher notes than the Tenor.The Tenor is in the key of Bb, while the Alto is in the key of Eb.The Tenor is larger than the Alto, while the Alto is smaller than the Tenor.Both are relatively easy to play, but in general, larger people with larger mouths, hands, and lungs have an easier time playing the Tenor; while smaller people with smaller mouths, hands, and lungs have an easier time playing the Alto. (That's not to say that big fat men don't play Alto and tiny skinny women don't play the Tenor; it's just an observation.)The Tenor often takes more lung-power than the Alto, while the Alto often takes more mouth-power.Of the two instruments, the Tenor is more likely to play harmony and the Alto more likely to play melody, but they're pretty much equal.They have the same fingerings, but read different music.I may have missed some comparisons, but I think that covers most of it (at least the basics). It is pretty easy to switch between the two, and I have to say that I would HATE to have to choose between the two. They're great instruments.
