The voice is a musical instrument that nature has endowed with man. Each person has a unique and inimitable voice. There are only similar ranges, depending on which the votes are divided into certain groups.
With the help of voice, a person can reproduce a large number of various sounds. It can express an emotional state: joy, anger, surprise. With the help of the vocal folds, their ability to compress and stretch, a person can change the intensity of the air flow, as a result, sounds that are different in timbre and pitch are obtained.
Human voices are male, female, and also childish, and each of them is special. You can never meet two identical voices, each has its own uniqueness, like human fingerprints.
