    Ash started going up the scale, making sure to listen for Alyssa beginning to strain or struggle--that was a sign she had reached the upper limits of her range. He would do the same when measuring the lower range.

    (where does Alyssa crack?)

    (That sounds correct to me)

    "Okay, now we'll go down." Ash instructed after noting the edge of Alyssa's high range as a 2nd octave E.

    After playing middle C again, he went down the scale to measure Alyssa's low range...

    (Once again, not sure on the term, but sounds like a soprano C from over here.)

    (Middle C is C4, and the Soprano C is C6--Ash is measuring Alyssa's low range, to see if Alyssa could sing an alto line)

    (Okay, since I'm sure I'll get the term completely wrong, I'll say Alyssa comes in at about C0.)

    A soprano typically goes from middle C (C4) to C6
    An alto typically goes from the F below middle C to the F above
    A mezzo soprano typically goes from the A below middle C to the A two octaves above

    I say "typically" because there have been some that can go much higher or much lower than those ranges

    As far as the boys go, Ash is a high tenor (a must for some of the characters he does the singing voice for), and Brock is a traditional tenor that can reach down into baritone territory if he needs to.

    (So assuming Alyssa's top note is C6, what would her lowest note be?)

    (If I had to make an assumption based on what I know, I'd say a C3, maybe a C2? Or perhaps lower?)

    (C3 sounds plausible enough)

    However, Alyssa didn't do so well on the low range, only managing to eke out the next C below. "A very clear soprano..." Ash mused. "Not too many girls can go as high as you can."

    "I'm just as surprised as you are, teach. Really didn't know I had all that in me...it almost scares me."

    Alyssa was glad that she nailed down one part, instead of messing up on both parts.

    The rest of the class went by smoothly. From the clearest and purest sopranos like Alyssa, to rich and resonant altos, heroic and strong tenors, and earth-shaking basses, Ash was pleased at the balance of parts in the class. Some years, there'd be too many sopranos and tenors, and other years, there'd be too many altos and basses. Mezzo-sopranos and baritones would be grouped into which end they did better at.

    Alyssa took a glance at her watch.

    "Wow, seems like I literally just got here and it's already afternoon. Nevertheless, these classes have been going really well so far. Who knows what's up next on the schedule."

    (for the moment, it's lunchtime)

    Hundreds of students streamed down the hall towards the spacious cafeteria for lunch. For only a flat fee of 1000 credits ($10), you could have everything from a humble peanut butter sandwich to high class dishes.

    Miracolore often performed during lunch, as well.

    (Figures.)

    Alyssa went up and ordered one of the high class dishes, cause they intrigued her. After paying and acquiring her meal, Alyssa searched for a place to sit. She chose a spot on the far edge of the cafeteria, not too close to the door, and close enough to hear most of the conversations and to get a good view of the performance if there was one.

    Alyssa ended up ordering pan seared Golduck on a bed of potatoes with vegetables, and a slice of dark chocolate pie for dessert.

    Onstage, Miracolore was tuning up--Brock his signature black acoustic guitar he mainly used in performances, Misty a well loved red-brown violin, and Serena a gold-brown mandolin. Ash, meanwhile, was fine tuning a ukulele before checking to see which of a row of tin whistles he would need to play, as well as a few of his flutes. The Pokeflute and the harmonica were guaranteed to appear, but every so often he would bring out an ocarina or panpipes

    Alyssa mused as she ate.

    "I know we had dinner theatre at my old academy, but lunch theatre? Now that's something else, if you ask me. Plus at my old academy, we had only one performer, not four...I should've come here first, it's really, well, amazing, there are no other words to describe this place. Glad I took them up on the offer they gave me."
