Best Answer

A standard chorus consists of four voice parts, two female and two male. The highest of the female voices sing soprano and the lowest sing alto. The highest male voices sing tenor and the lowest sing bass. On a piece of music this is designated on the front as SATB (soprano, alto, tenor, bass). The parts will often divide into 1 and 2. The voices singing the 1 part sing the higher within the range of their voice range. For example, when The Sopranos split into 2 parts, the women with the highest range sing 1 and the ones with lower voices sing 2. Bass 2 is the lowest when the choir splits. Pieces can be voiced in many ways, meaning that you could have a piece for SSAATTBB, SSAA, SAA, TB, TTBB, TBB, and any other combination the composer wishes to choose.

What is the Mountain Chorus Frog's call?

"Rrrack-rrrack-rrrack-rrrack-rrrack" is the call of the Mountain Chorus Frog (Pseudacris brachyphona).Specifically, the voice of the Mountain Chorus Frog is a raspy trill. Like that of Brimley's Chorus Frog (P. brimleyi), the call of the Mountain Chorus Frog is repeated at a rate of about two times per second. The ranges of the two frogs do not overlap, and the voice of the Mountain Chorus Frog is a bit harsher in sound.
