More important than range in voice classification is tessitura, or where the voice is most comfortable singing, and vocal timbre, or the characteristic sound of the singing voice. [1] For example, a female singer may have a vocal range that encompasses the low notes of a mezzo-soprano and the high notes of a soprano.
A bass is a type of classical male singing voice and has the lowest vocal range of all voice types.According to The New Grove Dictionary of Opera, a bass is typically classified as having a vocal range extending from around the second E below middle C to the E above middle C (i.e., E 2 –E 4).
The contralto singing voice has a vocal range that lies between the F below "middle C" (F 3) to two Fs above middle C (F 5) and is the lowest type of female voice.In the lower and upper extremes, some contralto voices can sing from two Bs below middle C (B 2) [1] to two B ♭ s above middle C (B ♭ 5).
A contralto (Italian pronunciation: [konˈtralto]) is a type of classical female singing voice whose vocal range is the lowest female voice type.

Basso profondo (Italian: [ˈbasso proˈfondo], "deep bass"), sometimes basso profundo or contrabass, is the lowest bass voice type.. While The New Grove Dictionary of Opera defines a typical bass as having a range that extends downward to the second E below middle C (E 2), [1] operatic bassi profondi can be called on to sing low C (C 2), as in the role of Baron Ochs in Der Rosenkavalier.
The term baritone was developed in relation to classical and operatic voices, where the classification is based not merely on the singer's vocal range but also on the tessitura and timbre of the voice. For classical and operatic singers, their voice type determines the roles they will sing and is a primary method of categorization.
The bass singing voice has a vocal range that lies around the second E below middle C to the E above middle C (i.e., E 2 –E 4). [1] As with the contralto singing voice being the rarest female voice type, the bass voice is the rarest for males, and has the lowest vocal range of all voice types. [2]
