I'm an alto and I love the section I'm in!! We're not as show-offy as some of the sopranos, so we sound better!!! Although, we usually get stuck with the crummy harmonies...

(Oh dear, I hope this isn't too old! ^^;; )
I'm a Soprano, but my range is really good. I just have a high voice so I chose to be a soprano. ^^; Some of our singers are showoff-y.
But the altos are really cool. One of my friends from it I swear to God has the voice range of an AK-47 rifle. O_O And he's an alto, so he could easily be ANYTHING.
God, I envy him. But it's kinda hard to get your voice uber-uber-high when you're singing out of melody while the altos are singing with the melody and it really messes you up sometimes. o.o;

I'm a Soprano I. I've been training as a classical soprano for four years, but before I started, I used to sing Alto II, so yes I do know what it's like to have weird harmonies. It's much harder than having the melody, but hey, once you get into the upper register, it's no piece of cake singing some of those high notes, no matter how high your range is! xd
Also, I can read music/sight read. Other than singing, I play alto saxophone, and sight-reading abilities are required for the choir I'm in at school. xd

I'm an alto, I used to sing soprano until I got really sick and lost my voice. I still push myself to sing high notes, but everyone loves my sometimes raspy alto.

I'm a soprano.
But I am a second soprano. Ooooh. Jazz and concert. ^^
Though I can sing first...I sing second so I can improve my harmonizing.

I'm usually a baritone. But in Concert Choir last year, we didn't have a dedicated baritone section so I ended up singing bass anyway.
The funny thing is, all of the "basses" that year were really baritones. xd The few "real" basses we had were all in Jazz Choir.
I find being a baritone funny and sometimes irritating. I'm stuck in the middle - I can't go down as low as a true bass, yet I can't reach up as high as a tenor.

The falsettos were just hilarious.

I first started singing in choir in the sixth grade. I started out as an alto but later, in highschool, was a first soprano. I can sing either or and depending upon the song even way down with the basses.

Alto...Alto II if you want to extend the parts further. I probably could sing Tenor I if I was needed. I love having a low voice. I love singing harmony. By itself a harmony may not seem vary interesting...but it can really add a fresh new color to a melody. Shaolan Lu I find being a baritone funny and sometimes irritating. I'm stuck in the middle - I can't go down as low as a true bass, yet I can't reach up as high as a tenor. I kinda have the same problem only in a different range...two notes shy of being a true tenor and two notes shy of being a true alto.

I am an Alto II who is occasionally shunted off into the Soprano II section when we don't have enough Seconds. W00t.

I'm a countertenor! xd But since contertenor isn't a normal section in the choir, I usually sing tenor. smile I love to sing second soprano or alto though...I love the harmonies they have. heart

I'm technically an Alto II, but last year I sang the part for Soprano II because they had trouble finding pitches, and the like, in songs.

I'm a little bit akward in my voice part...I've been singing in choirs for 6 years now. My first three choirs, in elementry school, I was a hard-core Alto. I could barely get up to an on staff C. That was when I was just learning though. The next year, my new teacher in middle school pushed me to work on my upper range, and before I could say O...She was my private voice teacher, and I was getting higher and higher week by week. Now these past two years, I can get up to the G that rests right on top of the staff. So I've basically been a switch in and out person for her. When the saprano part is high, and we're not getting enough of it out, she'll throw me into the mix. When they are too overpowering, she'll toss me into the altos to balence things out. It's a little akward because so many people think I'm a hardcore saprano, but I'd rather be an alto any day. I can go to about the usual middle of a tenors range, so I've got a lot more support down there then I do in my upper range. I also love being an alto and singing those tricky rythms and sharps and flats that balences everything out, but you never really appreciate those until you have sung them. Then they seem like the <3 and soul of a cord.
