Singer-songwriter Joy Chapman, from Surrey, British Columbia, set a new Guinness World Record for the “lowest note ever sung by a female.”
It appears that her lowest note sung on stage is a B♭2 ("Pour une femme de mon nom" at La Scala) and her highest is a D6 ("Sudò il guerriero" from Il Ritorno di Tobia by Haydn). She also performed and gave a lot of recital, notably with her husband, later with the pianist Garrick Ohlsson and Anna Marchwiński.

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.
Some men, in falsetto voice or as a result of certain rare physiological conditions, can sing in the same range as women. These do not fall into the female categories, instead called countertenors within classical music. Within contemporary music, however, the use of the term tenor for these male voices would be more appropriate. [2]
