A voice classification such as tenor, baritone, or bass whose primary range lies within the bass clef; the opposite of treble, thus “non-treble.” This term has been suggested to avoid gendered terminology in voice classification; however, some have found it pejorative and have posited the classification TTB (tenor/baritone/bass) for use in its place.[1]
