Which phrase names the three vocal registers for men?

• A. Chest, Head, Falsetto
• B. Chest, Middle, Head
• C. Vox Principalis
• D. Vox Organalis

Answer: (A)

Chest voice, head voice, and falsetto are the three vocal registers typically taught for male voices. Chest voice is the lower, fuller-sounding part of the range where the vocal folds vibrate more fully and resonance sits in the chest. As you move higher, the sound often shifts to head voice, which feels lighter and resonates mostly in the skull or facial cavities. Above the modal range, falsetto appears—an upper, airy sound produced with a different vocal-fold vibration that allows pitches beyond the usual chest/head range. These three terms together describe the main ways male singers access and label their lower, middle, and upper ranges. The other options use unfamiliar or nonstandard terms, so they don’t match the common vocabulary for these registers.
