Baritones

/ˈbæɹɪtoʊnz/ noun

Definition

Plural of baritone; multiple male singers with a baritone voice, or multiple baritone instruments.

Etymology

From Italian 'baritono', derived from Greek 'barys' (heavy) and 'tonos' (tone), literally meaning 'heavy tone'; plural formed by adding '-s'.

Kelly Says

The baritone voice sits right in the middle of the male range—it's the 'Goldilocks zone' that lets singers access both powerful low notes and soaring high passages.
