	Tenor C - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tenor C is the C one octave above Middle C.
		It is named because it is the high note for the tenor, especially in classical (Languir Per Una Bella- Rossini).
		Unlike the female counterpart, the soprano, who doesn't have to execute Soprano Cs to be classified as such, men usually are required to execute the Tenor C frequently in classical music to be considered a full tenor.

	Tenor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In music, a tenor is a male singer with a high voice (although not as high as the modern countertenor).
		A typical operatic tenor will have a range extending from the C below middle C to the C above middle C (C3-C5), though in choral music tenors are rarely asked to sing above Bb4 except in solos.
		It was also in the 15th century that "tenor" came to signify the male voice that sang such parts; later it was applied not only to singers, but also instrumental parts occupying approximately the same register, such as the Tenor violin.

	Encyclopedia of Organ Stops
		Wood is used from tenor C to E (five notes), and the remainder of the stop from tenor F is of metal.
		The stop is formed of wood and metal, and its unique and characteristic feature obtains in the fact that from tenor C to the top note of its compass the pipes are stopped and harmonic, speaking the first possible upper partial tone - the Twelfth - of the ground tone belonging to their speaking length.
		The scale of the C pipe is 2.13 inches by 2.75 inches; and its length from its lower lip, including sufficient hold for the stopper, is 2 feet 9 1/2 inches.

	Steel Pan Tuning - Tenor (Soprano)
		The early tenors (ping-pongs) still had some of their lower notes, such as F# in the middle section, but eventually all the lower notes were moved to the outer ring with the corresponding octaves just inside them.
		The C and the C# in the outer ring are made bigger and the rest of the notes a bit smaller.
		For the 8" (200 mm) sinking of tenors it is sufficient to use the sinking hammer down to 7 1/2" (190 mm) = 95% of final depth.

		The cant, which is the littlest of the bassanelli, is notably excellent to hear on the tenor part in ensembles in which all types and sets of instruments are used, for its tuning is rather accurate, and is similar to flutes in the execution of a tenor part.
		The five course cittern was tuned either e ', d ', g, b, d or a, g, c, e, F. The six course cittern was tuned either e ', d ', g, b, d, G or e ', d ', g, b, c ', a or e ', d ', g, d, G, b.
		The common relative tuning was g ', d ', a, f, c; the exact pitch was dependent on the diameter of the strings and the string length.

		Unlike its female counterpart, the soprano, tenors are frequently required to execute the Tenor C on demand in order to be considered a true tenor.

	Orchestral Saxophones in F and C (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		The orchestral intention of the F alto and C tenor is indicated by its absence in Kastner's 1847 Manual General de Musique Militaire, which dealt with military bands.
		When they appeared in the mid-nineteenth century, saxes had originally been made in C and F. These saxophones are called the orchestra saxophones, and were designed to fit with the keys of the instruments in a typical orchestra at the time of their invention.
		If you finger C, the note it will play will be C. If you play from sheet music along with other C instruments — a piano, for example — the result should sound reasonably musical, allowing only that all the players involved have the same sheet music.

	Scot Ranney's LearnJazzPiano.com archive: Question for experts in wind instruments
		I believe that if it sounds like a C, it should be called a C! I believe the convention of having wind instruments in different "keys" was simply so that the range of that instrument would fit more neatly within either the G staff or the F staff.
		For string instruments, the problem was addressed simply by using the various C clefs and simply moving the C clef up or down the staff to indicate the location of C for the various instruments (violin, viola, cello, bass).
		Actaually, most professional tubists play on C tubas because of the richer sound, and a C trumpet is not at all uncommon in a symphony orchestra.

		I have seen a Buescher C tenor that was engraved form stem to stern, inlaid in gold plating and had gold-plated keys.
		Also, they almost always have a "C" below the serial number on the back of the horn by the thumb rest (if it has an A or Bb or T, you are okay because it is not a C tenor).

		Below are the keys of C, F, G and Bb, they are not the most popular keys, but because of how one chord easily connects to another you will start to see the pattern of things work.
		The tenor guitar can be considered to be a transition instrument between Dixieland banjo and the six string swing guitar, particularly as it started to outpace the tenor banjo in popularity, towards end of the 1920s.
		Clearly though the tenor guitar has a distinctive sound and style of its own, and there is literally no limit to the many styles of music that can be made from this unique instrument which can be heard in country music, western swing, and jazz, as well as contemporary folk and pop music.

		There was a C trombone sold as a Parson's trombone or Preacher's trombone at some time in the past.

		There is one brief divisi in the soprano part, but ranges are reasonable and the singable lines, mostly scales with narrow leaps and well prepared changes of harmony, should be easy to master.
