 The dramatic tenor's approximate range is from the B one octave below middle C (B2) to the B one octave above middle C (B4) with some able to sing up to the C one octave above middle C (C5).Many successful dramatic tenors though have historically avoided the coveted high C in performance.Their lower range tends to extend into the baritone tessitura or, a few notes below the C3, even down to A♭2.
