Georgia Brown is a Brazilian pop singer notable for her extensive vocal range. She is the current Guinness World Records holder for singing the highest recorded vocal note and also possessing the largest recorded vocal range, which spans exactly 8 octaves from G2-G10. It has been verified by comparing the frequency of the note to that of a piano, a violin, and a Hammond organ, according to the The Guinness Book of World Records. This is known as being a Full Dramatic Coloratura Soprano. Other noted Coloratura Sopranos are the well known Mariah Carey, Minnie Ripperton, Sheryn Regis, Shanice. A similar performer is Adam Lopez, who holds the record for largest recorded male vocal range. Brown has performed since she was a little girl at the age of 5. Her most famous performances are the live performances of "Mermaid", done totally in high notes (Whistle register), and the studio sessions version of another hit "It's A Pleasure". She hits an astounding G8, held for 7 seconds, rather than the G6 like on the album version.
