Subject:  What is a Bass (a question of sound)


Hello,

This is my first time posting, though I have been searching through
the list for about a year, gleaning what gems of knowledge I can
find. And since there seem to be such great answers I figured I
would start posting rather than digging. That said....

Is the difference between a Bass and a Bass/Baritone more a question
of some qualitative description (dark/light, dramatic/lyric, etc.) or
is it as simple as the range which one sings? I also know that the
voice evolves as we age and that ancestry has some bearing on that.
Also if you know of any good sound clips to compare, please let me
know.

Thanks for your time.

Cyrus
