Actually Mitch isn't a tenor. I know we're conditioned to the idea that adult males are either tenor or bass, but Mitch is the ULTRA rare adult male alto. The man doing the reaction refers to him as a 'tenor altino', but if you listen to Mitch's natural speaking voice the timber is clearly alto. He can stretch 'down' into the mid-tenor range, but he can 'full voice' all the way to top of alto and range well up into the soprano range without going 'full head' and easily without having to 'dip' falsetto. Damn near unique honestly. Avi is also quite rare being a 'basso profundo', but not quite the 'near unicorn' of Mitch. The fact they have both of them and world class vocalists in their own right in Kirsti and Scott both having wide range with great breath and tone control. Kevin is just a beat-boxing god as well as an incredible instrumentalist (obviously doesn't do that with Pentatonix) and can sing with a light but pleasant tenor. The fact they assembled this collection of talent and skill into a single group? Historic.

I think that they are probably in the top five artists to come out of the tv singing competition shows in terms of overall success (not being overly familiar with all of them), alongside Jennifer Hudson, Adam Lambert, Carrie Underwood, and Kelly Clarkson, and the only non-American Idol contestants on the list. I remember when they got their first Grammy nomination, Entertainment Weekly had an article headlined, “Grammy nods: The Sing-Off: 1, The Voice: 0.” And that was after TSO was canceled by NBC.

You can't compare a solo artist from a group. Different textures, very different feel. Kd langs is one of my favorites to be sure, but with a group the sound is richer because there's chords in voices, it's like a single speaker over double speaker sound.

The first guy is Scott Hoying (baritone). His voice is soulful. The second guy (beard and beanie) is Avi Kaplan (pronounced Aahh vee) and his tone sounds different perhaps because he is typically the bass. His voice is full of emotion and warmth and he has an amazing range. Next is Kirstie Maldonado mezzo soprano and her voice is light and angelic. Mitch Grassi (in the hat) is the countertenor. His voice quality is so beautiful and unique. Guaranteed to blow your socks off. Last but definitely not least is the beat boxer extraordinaire and also a tenor Kevin Olusola. Probably the most talented of all. Thanks for your reaction. I hope you will check out Daft Punk (their first Grammy win), Imagine and Bohemian Rhapsody.

It makes your heart feel soooo good and makes you addicted to this feeling to want to listen to them sing ! It's an addiction and a high that can't be overdosed on! I could die happy being able to hear them singing as I take my last breathe! It's that beautifull and so we'll done! They all have something to bring to the table and is such an awesome 'food for the soul' that I can eat and drink every last drop! This is just perfect and is the top of the ladder when it brings a person to tears, because its like bei g in Heaven, like how the angels are singing! I love it! I just love them! Thank you, for sharing this with the world! Really! Perfection in all ways! God bless and keep them singing and sharing this with us all! Take a bow! They deserve it! Awesome!!

Pentatonix (abbreviated PTX), a 3 time Grammy award winning American a cappella group from Arlington, Texas, consisting of vocalists Scott Hoying (baritone), Mitch Grassi (tenor), Kirstin Maldonado (mezzo-soprano), Kevin Olusola (vocal percussion), and Matt Sallee (bass). Avi Kaplan, the original bass of the group (he was the second singer in the video you just watched) left in 2017 and was replaced by Matt. Characterized by their pop-style arrangements with vocal harmonies, basslines, riffing, percussion, and beatboxing, they produce cover versions of modern pop works or Christmas songs, sometimes in the form of medleys, along with original material. Pentatonix formed in 2011 and subsequently won the third season of NBC's The Sing-Off, receiving $200,000 and a recording contract with Sony Music. When Sony's Epic Records dropped the group after The Sing-Off, the group formed its KZfaq channel, distributing its music through Madison Gate Records, a label owned by Sony Pictures.[3][4][5] Their KZfaq channel currently has over 18 million subscribers and 5 billion views. The group's video tribute to Daft Punk had received more than 347 million views as of April 6, 2021. They are considered the best a cappella group in the world with their innovation and sound....

Yeah, I love him debating with himself what octave Mitch is natural in...from what I've heard, he's considered a counter-tenor...but I don't know enough about music theory to tell the difference between that and a tenor-altino...but with a quick Google search I found out that the range is actually called contra-altino...so, basically the same thing, "Contra" meaning counter and "Altino" being the male version of a female "Alto" singer...or the highest range possible for their sex...and yeah, I actually think I found Pentatonix around the same time I started following MrLboyd when reaction videos first became big quite a few years now, and he has always been thoughtful in his analysis...and he basically nailed it as soon as he heard Mitch sing...

They are not a college acapella group-- they are a professional acapella group with a huge following, several albums, and they won an acapella competition. Avi, the second singer left the group. The first singer, Kirsten, and Mitch started the group -- she and Mitch met in high school choir.

I always love watching first time PTX reactors, especially when it's to this song. 99% of the time we get the "Mitch face" (hat boy) when he starts his verse and you didn't disappoint haha. If ever in doubt that the tight harmonies and singing are studio produced, you can watch them perform this song on KZfaq from their TV Christmas special a few years back. I've seen them 3 times in concert and will definitely see them again when tours are allowed once more. You mentioned hearing the girl (Kirstin) more...I suggest Shallow (cover) or Be My Eyes (original). Other staples to react to I've seen in other comments, Daft Punk, Bohemian Rhapsody, etc. Looking forward to seeing more of your PTX reactions.
