What singer can hit the highest note?

But it's Mariah Carey who takes the prize for the largest vocal range of all. She can reach a low F2 and hit an unbelievable G7, a note that dolphins would envy, and that only some dogs can hear.

We looked at the vocal ranges of these iconic singers — and they’re really impressive

By Sofia Rizzi

From Pavarotti to Prince, some of these musicians’ vocal ranges span a spectacular four octaves. A middle C on the piano can also be described as a C4 – and any number above or below that measures an octave. So, a C3 would be an octave below C4, while C5 would be an octave above. That considered, the vocal ranges seen here are nothing short of a miracle. Luciano Pavarotti is hailed as the world’s greatest tenor, and his impressive vocal range proves just that. In his prime, the larger-than-life tenor could hit an F5 – that’s an octave and a half above middle C. Then, there are those of musicians from the pop world. While David Bowie and Freddie Mercury both had ranges spanning four octaves, Prince could hit a gobsmacking B6. Beyoncé isn’t far off that either, with a versatile range starting at A2 and hitting E6. Plus, Lady Gaga’s earthy lower register allows her to hit a B flat 5. As heavenly and awe-inspiring as the high notes are, let’s not forget the lower register. Montserrat Caballé and Renée Fleming, for instance, can both reach an F sharp 3. Montserrat Caballé hits this note in Strauss’ opera Salome. But it’s Mariah Carey who takes the prize for the largest vocal range of all. She can reach a low F2 and hit an unbelievable G7, a note that dolphins would envy, and that only some dogs can hear.

Is Rush E the hardest piano song?

Robot piano plays black MIDI file Rush E - “the world's hardest piano song” - then goes up in smoke | MusicRadar.

musicradar.com - Robot piano plays black MIDI file Rush E - then goes up in smoke |

Created by Sheet Music Boss in 2018 (opens in new tab), Rush E is a black MIDI (opens in new tab) track that’s been called ‘the world’s hardest piano song’, in that it’s considered to be impossible for a single human to play. Black MIDI songs typically use huge numbers of notes - far more than can be played simultaneously by just two hands - but what if a piano could play Rush E itself? That was the question posed by YouTuber Mark Rober - who previously worked at NASA - and the results are something to behold. Rober fed the Rush E MIDI file into Chopstix, a modified Edelweiss piano that can also speak (sort of), causing the instrument to appear to start smoking under the strain as it attempted to play it. Thankfully, we’re assured that “No Chopstix were hurt in the filming of this video (ie, he didn’t ACTUALLY catch fire).” Before we get to that, there’s a nice explanation of how an upright piano works - and why it’s considered a percussion instrument rather than a string one - and how Chopstix was made.
