Voice type and genre
R&B Songs for Altos
426 R&B songs in the HumMatch catalog sit entirely inside a typical alto range, F3 to D5. Every one of them stays inside that band from first note to last, so none of them ask you for a note you do not have.
Voice type is a practical grouping here, not a clinical classification. Two altos rarely share the exact same range, which is why the fit percent below is worked out from notes rather than from the label.
