Dmitri Hvorostovsky

What is Dmitri Hvorostovsky’s vocal range?

Dmitri Hvorostovsky's vocal range is commonly cited as G2 to A4 — about 2.2 octaves, or 26 semitones, and is usually classified as baritone.

Smooth Verdi baritone with a metallic edge and long, unbroken legato on a single breath. That cited span is wider than 15% of the 357 voices in this library.

Reading the numbers

• ·Only 5 of the 51 baritones here work a narrower cited span.
• ·4 other voices here carry the identical cited range — at the resolution these figures are quoted in, those voices are indistinguishable on the chart.
• ·No separate full-voice ceiling is cited, so the figures describe a range worked largely in full voice across its 26 semitones.
• ·One of 2 singers from Russia charted here.
• ·Ranked by bottom note, it is the 111th lowest of the 357 voices here; by top note, the 329th highest.

Commonly cited figures, not lab measurements — extreme notes are one-off recorded moments, not the singer’s everyday range.
