Just as a note, I'd say the upper limits stated for
each range on this link are a little conservative.
They look low for the women, but you'd definitely be
hard pressed to find a tenor role that tops out at G,
a baritone role that tops out at F, or (no matter how
comfy it would be) a bass role that doesn't go above C
(maybe Sarastro, but that's the only possibility that
comes to mind). Most vocal types are regularly asked
to go a third or a fourth higher than what's listed
here. Sorry to nitpick, but I figured it might be
helpful to some...
