voice change and singing

[Stephanie]

Jeh, I can hear a tremendous difference in your voice!   You have gone from a high soprano* to  having a darker, weightier voice.   The musicians that you work with MUST have noticed, what are they saying?
I listened to your above three posted links in reverse order.  In the one where you say 'This is my voice after 4 weeks of T', you sound as if you have a slight cold.  I listened to the second link 'This is my voice after 1 day of T' and you can really, absolutely hear the difference.   
In my opinion right now you have darker, grainier voice, you sound like a dramatic mezzo who has a lightness and a softness in the upper register.


* Soubrette:  Think of Graziella Sciutti, and Hilda Gueden.

Thanks. I go to school for music, but we're on summer break until September. I've posted several singing clips on facebook and my musical theatre friends are all saying stuff like "wow, what a difference, that's cool." I've almost completely lost my upper register, I can hardly hit the B above middle C, and it sounds strained.

My voice teacher heard the singing clip I posted in my last post and he told me to start looking for tenor repertoire for September. I don't know anything about tenor repertoire! Do you know where I should start?

Pretty incredible change Jeh. I didn't get that much change for 3 months!

Jeh up until you said '...This is day 39 on testosterone' you sounded female.   You spoke with a darker, slightly grainy voice but your pitch was still female.  However, by day 39 your pitch was definitely sounding male to my ears.   You should try calling businesses on the phone to see if they 'Sir' or 'ma'am' you I think that you will be delighted by the results.

It is impossible to say what type of tenor you will be, though it is highly unlikely that you will become a Heldentenor so I wouldn't bother listening to Wagner if I were you.    I recommend that you go to YouTube and type 'tenor' into the search bar and click on whatever comes up.  Jeh you should listen to as many tenors as possible.
