As only 3 percent of Sax's surviving production were pitched in F and C, and as contemporary composers used the E alto and B bass saxophone freely in orchestral music, it is almost certain that Sax experimented to find the most suitable keys for these instruments, settling upon instruments alternating between E and B rather than those pitched in F and C, for reasons of tone and economy ( the saxophones were the most expensive wind instruments of their day ).

Later in the same work, Purcell's own manuscript designates the same singer, Mr Howel, described as " a High Contra tenor " to perform in the range G < sub > 3 </ sub > to C < sub > 4 </ sub >; it is very likely that he took some of the lowest notes in a well-blended " chest voice " – see below ).

The tenor voice ( in choral music ) lies between C < sub > 3 </ sub >, the C one octave below middle C, and ( A < sub > 4 </ sub >), the A above middle C. In solo work, this range extends up to ( C < sub > 5 </ sub >), or " tenor high C ." The low extreme for tenors is roughly B2 ( two Bs below middle C ).

Within opera, the lowest note in the standard tenor repertoire is A < sub > 2 </ sub > ( Mime, Herod ), but few roles fall below C < sub > 3 </ sub >.

The barbershop tenor range is B-below-middle C ( B < sub > 3 </ sub >) to D-above-high C ( D < sub > 5 </ sub >), though it is written an octave lower.
