Soprano is the highest female voice type. There are many types of sopranos like the coloratura soprano, lyric soprano, the soubrette etc. which differ in vocal agility, vocal weight, timbre, and voice quality; I will talk about them in an upcoming article.
A singer should never be forced or encouraged to train as a certain voice type if that voice type is not what the instrument is naturally. Although all voices within the same voice type (or vocal Fach) have common characteristics, each sub-type has unique features that require a particular approach in teaching. am purposely leaving timbre (vocal 'colour') out of this discussion because it is a very complex topic to broach. Though it is important in singing and in determining vocal Fach, it is also difficult to describe, and there are countless timbres amongst individual singers.
