For a decent while (until I was 18), I had a pretty wide falsetto. I could reach two octaves above middle C; possibly more, I don't remember exactly. But then I joined a men's glee club and learned to sing with proper technique. Since then, my falsetto has shrunk considerably - I can only get it to about a C above middle C; above that it gets hard to control and warbly, and by G or so it's simply inaudible or impossible. Interestingly, over winter break (when I wasn't singing daily) it seemed to somewhat come back. Does it make any sense that singing "correctly" in chest and head voice would diminish one's falsetto? Is it possible that my falsetto is just now starting to vanish beyond age 18? Or is it possible I've done vocal damage that affects only my falsetto by singing tenor notes?

Some male soloists can sing as Baritone and Alto (falsetto) with very good voice quality in both registers. I have met one guy recently, he is a fellow from another choir and also a soloist.

He sang some parts as Baritone and other parts as Alto in the same H. Purcell Tedeum/Jubilate (I just sang in the choir).

It could be more difficult for Tenors to do both and I never met one, but no I'm not sure.

In any case, this is not a gift everybody has...
