I’m sure this would be very interesting if I knew anything about music.
I’m assuming 2022 and 2020 are flipped?
That’s a fantastic way to visualize it! I’m inspired to create something similar. I started choral singing about 2 years ago, and my vocal range has improved a lot but I find myself really struggling with my upper range namely c4 is where my voice likes to crack, for basses thats supposed to be doable in chest voice apparently, so I don’t know what I’m doing wrong
Congratulations! That’s a great improvement in range, and I am sure the quality and timbre of the notes has improved significantly as well. Good stuff!
What a refreshing viz to see in the sub…. unusual, yet elegant!
I agree that you need more scaffolding for people who can’t read music. Maybe something indicating the half step count of your range for 2010 and 2024?
Great visualization.
I just read The Visual Display of Quantitative Information (*interesting if you ever want to create graphics, but also fantastic even if you just like looking at good graphics*) and while most graphics, even here on r/dataisbeautiful don’t meet the author’s standard, every once in a while there’ll be a really brilliant, creative, or elegant graphic that makes me think of the examples/good graphics in that book. This is one.
I just find this really elegant. Each measure cleverly still shows time, and it very naturally invites comparison measure/year to measure/year. There’s no more wasted data-ink than tried-and-true sheet music.
Do you have experience creating graphics/data displays or is this your first one? Bc if the former I want to see more and if the latter, you have a great natural sense of elegant graphical design.
Based on the low end of your range, I’d guess you’re a First Tenor. If so, I’m willing to bet a hefty chunk of that top octave is falsetto. As a second tenor, I’m lucky to hit G4 before I have to go falsetto. (Not disparaging falsetto, it certainly has its place.)
I’m not super familiar with vocal training, but why does your lower range only drop a half step over a decade? Is it more difficult to train your lower register to go lower or do you just not need to access that range in your performances? Some combination of the two?
random question, are you a talkative person? i was depressed for like a year and kinda stopped talking to people for a bit, and i can definitely notice it when i sing lol
I’m sure someone will find this interesting, hopefully OP

How Death Metal Singers Make Their Extreme Vocalizations
https://www.sciencefriday.com/segments/death-metal-vocal-research/
Pardon my ignorance. How did you measure the range?
Are there instruments which convert the frequencies of human voice into a range?
Basically, what is the data source and tool used?
A 3 octave range is pretty impressive.
