T.R. – You are right! I was basing my opinions from my own ethnocentric viewpoint (unlike everyone else!). I think that we CAN notice the range of vocal ranges in the human species with some objectivity – going from the very low to the very high and the general prevalence of a particular pitch. For some reason I just seem to be more aware of the prevalence of very high voices in Asian culture (as featured in Indian, Chinese, and other Asian music) and the occassional low voices I hear from Black females. It may be a cultural bias, but I believe that each race has a predominance of a certain trait for whatever reason. Your comment about the ‘norm’ is true! A ‘norm’ often seems to originate from our cultural and family center!
