A soprano is a singer with a voice that usually ranges from middle C to "high C", two octaves above middle C (ie C4-C6), although quite a few sopranos can sing either higher or lower than the usual range. In four part chorale style harmony the soprano takes the highest part which usually encompasses the melody.
