Dimash Kudaibergen is a rare combination of uncanny natural ability and a hell of a lot of training.

If you are interested in vocal range, I don't know anyone with a greater set of vocal texture.

Opera musicians aren't on this list, but wide vocal range is table stakes for that genre.

Exactly who I was going to suggest - Dimash.

A range of 6 octaves is positively superhuman.

Even Yma Sumac, who is often cited when it comes to the widest vocal range, was just barely short of 6 octaves.

Since I've just looked this up: Tim Storms ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Storms), the current world record holder when it comes to vocal range, has one of 10 octaves (with the lower end extending into infrasound, i.e. being inaudible to the human ear)!

I get more goosebumps from listening to that song than running around naked in the snow.
