Soprano C

Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Cite This Source

Soprano C, sometimes called High C, is the C two octaves above Middle C It is named because it is considered the highest usable note of the soprano, particularly for choral singers (although some can go higher; Mozart's "Der Hölle Rache", the Queen of the Night aria from Die Zauberflöte, contains several occurrences of the F a fourth above.). It is also called C6 in American note-octave notation. In European notation, it is c3.
