Karaoke is a great way to claim the spotlight and show off your vocal talents to an enthusiastic audience who no doubt all believe they could be the next Whitney Houston or Freddie Mercury.
The best karaoke songs for sopranos can be challenging to say the least. Before you even consider belting one out at your next karaoke party or venue, be sure that you can actually reach those high octave power notes perfectly.
Listening to any performer at karaoke who attempts to sing songs outside of their vocal range is not exactly 'music to the ears' and will not do their vocal cords any favors either.
Soprano refers mainly to women, it is the highest singing voice with the highest 'tessitura' C4-C6 and the lightest vocal weight of them all.
Sopranos are generally given the most prominent classical singing roles especially in Opera. They can sing from the middle C to two octaves higher (an interval of 15 notes in total).
It is estimated that more than 60% of female voices fall in the vocal range of soprano.
Always remember if you find yourself straining the life out of your voice to sing high notes or plunging the depths to hit low notes, then those notes are definitely outside your tessitura which is the comfortable singing range that spans across all vocal registers.
You may find Karaoke Kooks selection of the best karaoke songs for sopranos challenging, but at the end of the day unless you are completely tone deaf there is no harm in rising to the challenge. Give it your all if you are confident enough.
For those fortunate female sopranos who can belt out those high notes with power, you are sure to bring the house down at any karaoke gathering.
