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 Lea Salonga uses that range
Her sound is unusually tidy. Onsets begin right on the pitch with no scoop, vowels stay narrow and matched from note to note, and vibrato is withheld until the last beat of a long tone. Between the D5 belt and the top of the range she moves into a light head register with almost no seam, so the change reads as a shift of colour rather than a change of gear. Imitations go wrong by adding weight and constant vibrato; the plainness is the technique.

- Ranked by bottom note, it is the 559th lowest voice in this library; by top note, the 69th highest.
