whistle register


the highest register of the human voice. a note properly sung in this register can, in fact, shatter gl-ss.

the whistle register is very rarely used in music, mostly because the ability to hold a pitch in the whistle register is itself very rare. however, singers who can reach these notes do have a few special privileges. only a whistle-register singer may play the queen of the night in mozart’s die zauberflote.
two very famous whistle register singers are mariah carey and sarah brightman.
