Tenor versus High Tenor[edit]

I think it's useful when talking about bluegrass music to distinguish between the tenor and high tenor parts, so I'm editing the article accordingly. (Jesse, after all, sings mostly in the normal tenor range. What's special about Jim's voice is how it soars so effortlessly into the counter-tenor range.)

Jim isn't a high tenor, Bill Monroe and the like are. Listen to any recording of the duo and Bill and you can tell. Should revert back to "tenor" as he isn't a high tenor like Bill Monroe, one of the only true "high tenors" of bluegrass music I'm pretty sure. Olivarivs (talk) 18:57, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
