| | Tenor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In medieval music, the tenor voice was usually assigned what was called in the Renaissance the cantus firmus, or the primary melody, which in the Western medieval music was the lowest voice. | | | In music, a tenor is a male singer with a high voice (although not as high as the modern countertenor). | | | Tenore lirico or di grazia: a lightweight, graceful, lyric tenor |

| | The Counter Tenor |
| | I have had the experience of playing a recording of a counter tenor and having the person immediately say, "that is a counter!" Often this is spoken in not such a flattering fashion because the underlying subtext is that the sound is ugly or unattractive. | | | This sound need not be present in the sound of a counter tenor and later on I will discuss practical measures to correct this vocal difficulty. | | | The singer has the choice of singing his full voiced traditional male sound such as tenor, baritone, or bass, or the choice of singing with a reinforced or strengthened falsetto mechanism. |

| | Cal Percussion * About: Tenor Drums |
| | Therefore, tenor drums have, in the recent course of the marching percussion world's progression, proven to be a favorite among drummers and virtually indispensable to any drumline that has sought to play percussion pieces, cadences, and performance parts with percussive style and groove. | | | A tenor drummer must be well-versed in not only the rudimental drumming of a snare drummer, but consciously so for multiple drums, enabling them to perform a variety of skillful maneuvers and techniques that they are so well-known for. | | | From a musical standpoint, though, the tenor drums—the multi-toms, the quads, the quints (in our case, quints)—serve as the high-pitched, alto/tenor sound in a percussion ensemble, rounding out the snare and bass drum parts. |

| | In 1963 Herman Johnson changed the design by moving the inner notes apart to reduce the acoustic coupling of adjacent notes. | | | In this way the harmonics of the octave, the fifth and the fourth, will surround each note and help up the harmonic spectrum of the tone. | | | The reason for naming the highest pan of the steelband "tenor" is historical: In the early days, the lead melody was played on a pan with less than ten notes. |
