Well, it looks as if I am changing fachs. I have been a lyric mezzo for the past two years. My voice teacher says that my voice is definitely going up and that I am soprano because I have lost some of the bottom notes that I had and have gained some top (I have always had a strong high soprano C). My upper middle register is getting stronger, too. I recall reading on Vocalist that a fach is as much psychological as vocal. I can understand that now because I have to get used to the idea that the mezzo rep I always thought I'd get to will not be suitable for my voice anymore. I also have to get used to the idea of the wonderful soprano rep that is opening up to me! I will keep all of you posted on my fach adjustment.
