Understanding the Mezzo-Soprano Voice by dopointt is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Mezzo-soprano is a female voice type between soprano and contralto. Their vocal range typically extends from A below middle C to A above. There are three main subtypes: coloratura have an agile high range, lyric have a smooth tone, and dramatic have a powerful medium range. Mezzo-sopranos commonly sing secondary roles but some lead roles were originally composed for them, like Carmen. They often portray witches, villains, or trouser roles cross-dressing as men.
