Yma Sumac became an international success based on her extreme vocal range.
In one live recording of “Chuncho“, she sings a range of over four and a half octaves, from B2 to G♯7. She was able to sing notes in the low baritone register as well as notes above the range of an ordinary soprano and notes in the whistle register. Both low and high extremes can be heard in the song “Chuncho (The Forest Creatures)“ (1953). She was also apparently able to sing in a remarkable “double voice“.
