Probably a stupid question but what is a Mezzo and why are you not one?

LOL good question...

so yes...please do answer..what is a mezzo...why are you not one???????????????????

:confused:

did it work??? is my sig different????????????

yeah hi its me

Lol....sorry for the mystifying name, guys!

It's a long story, but I'll just give the short version...."mezzo" is Italian for "middle," and refers to a mezzo-soprano, literally "middle soprano." It's a designation of a voice type that's lower than a soprano but higher than a contralto.

It's DIFFERENT than if you sing in a choir and had 1st and 2nd soprano, 1st and 2nd alto, etc. Voice PARTS have to do with range and what's needed to even up sound in a group; voice TYPES are more to do with range, yes, but also how your voice SOUNDS in that range.

Confused yet?

In high school, I took a lot of pride in the fact that I was an alto in choir. Lower, richer voice, better sight-reading than sopranos, stuff like that. In an extracurricular quartet, though, I'd take soprano every now and then, which inspired a friend to tell me I was more of a mezzo-soprano than an alto. I got mad (loving my alto-ness as I do) and told him I was "not a mezzo and never would be."

Now, in college, and actually learning something about music....in solo singing, there's a big difference between what you sing in choir and what type of voice you have. There are very, very, very few contraltos now; this is a rare operatic voice type which is very deep, very rich, very very LOW. It's usually divided up into sopranos and mezzo-sopranos, with different types of each.

At first they thought I was a soprano, which is a characteristic of UNCG's voice department...they hear every voice high. Last year, though, my voice teacher became more and more convinced that I was really a lower voice, a mezzo-soprano. By now, having learned a few things about opera and recital singing, I was really glad to be told that. My friend, however, won't let me forget, and I keep the screen name as a sort of private joke between us.

Sorry that was kind of long...if anybody's got any more questions or confusions, feel free to ask. I love talking shop. :D

lol. i figured it had something to do with mezzo-soprano...in high school they kept trying ot put me as a mezzo too, although my voice teacher kept telling them i was a high soprano...luckily they finally listened

I thought it had something to do with Mizzou....

Hey Not...I'm a mezzo!!! That's what I figured you meant anyway, so I figured you were just some other voice part ;-)

My voice coach calls me a mezzo, but in my choir I sing Sop I. YAY!!! I love ze high nots, but can't stay up there very long. Ah well.

GO PHI MU !!!

Hey! Can somebody help me have a prettier signature? I want to put in Phi Mu letters above the Creed part. I'm illiterate...HELP???

Oh, and can you help me make the words darker??

Copy and paste this and delete the spaces:
