With your laid-back attitude and ability to succeed effortlessly at every endeavor, you are coolness defined. Just know that self-pity is not attractive.

Other Bass-Baritones: Greer Grimsley, George London, Bryn Terfel

Okay, it’s true. You’re hunk-a-licious. But beware: there’s a cuter baritone standing just behind you. When we evaluate you we wonder: are you a useful ally? Or a vicious enemy?

Other Baritones: Nathan Gunn, John Reardon, Peter Mattei

You’re not as irresistible as your endless wooing might suggest—no one is. But too many high notes have hollowed out your brain, and you’ve lost the ability to see yourself from other people’s point of view.

Other Tenors: Luciano Pavarotti, Enrico Caruso, Lawrence Brownlee

You are a breath of fresh air—smart, authentic, and sexy (often in an androgynous way). We don’t say it enough; but everyone appreciates the long-suffering patience with which you endure the nincompoops who populate your world.

Other Mezzo Sopranos: Susan Graham, Frederica von Stade, Kate Lindsey

Being with you is a lush and luscious experience—until it becomes a nightmare. You move slowly, with great style and elegance, and all are transfixed by your beauty. High drama is life and breath to you.

Other Lyric Sopranos: Renée Fleming, Renata Tebaldi, Kiri Te Kanawa

You are a dazzler, capable of astonishing pyrotechnic displays and glittering perfection. But you have a tendency to get a bit light-headed or lost in the clouds. When you’re not the center of attention, it’s easy for you to grow peevish.

Other Light Sopranos: Natalie Dessay, Beverly Sills, Kathleen Battle
