Evidence and review
Individual evidence review is pending. The displayed range is a reported reference span, not an independently verified physiological limit.
These are the approximate figures fans and music journalists commonly cite — the widest notes a singer has recorded, not the comfortable range they sing in every night, and not lab measurements. Treat them as a fun reference, not a target.
How Diana Ross uses that range
Thin cord closure gives a bright, narrow edge that cuts through a dense track without much volume behind it. Onsets are breathy, words are delivered conversationally on top of the groove, and the top of the range is reached as a light head tone rather than belted. What vibrato there is stays small, and it often disappears entirely. Ornament is sparse — a bend or a single turn, not a run. Restraint and forward placement are the whole appeal, and added soul weight or heavy melisma pulls against them.
