The highest female voicing within choral music. Usually the bearer of melody.
The sopranos in the choir sang the the melody to all of the carols while the rest of the choir sang the countermelody.

Get the Soprano mug.
Show stealers of choir, made mostly of popular females. Sound like dying pigeons most of the time.
"Her voice is high as a chihuahua's bark."
"Yea, she probably a soprano."

The highest womon's singing voice, usually limited to womyn and children.

Plays the heroine in opera and musicals...
Ranging from sweet, innocent little maidens, to long-suffering victim womyn and a few villains or semi-villains.
Sopranos... ranging from high, fluteish, tweety birds... to steely, powerful, DRAMATIC Wagner roles

Based on a lot of the characters in the TV Series, The Sopranos and its recurring theme of hypocrisy; someone who preaches good values but commits a series of vices or misdeeds. In other words, someone who is a major hypocrite.
Tony Soprano was enraged with one of his Capos, Ralphie Cifaretto, over him killing a horse, but Tony would eat beef and sausage by the truck load.

That Soprano, David, taught his friends values of commitment to a partner, but he would cheat on his wife by sleeping with different women each night behind her back.

The highest womyn's singing voice, usually limited to wymyn and children.

Plays the heroine in opera and musicals...
Ranging from sweet, innocent ingenues to long-suffering, victimized womyn and a few villains or semi-villains.
Sopranos... from sassy but likeable soubrettes to high, fluteish, coloraturas to sweet, virginal lyric sopranos to strong, tragic spinto and dramatic sopranos... to steely, powerful, DRAMATIC Wagner roles.

A penis.
Used from people who don't like saying the word penis.
Originally made because sopranos would sometimes cut off their penis when they are young to make their voice higher.

An HBO TV series that focuses on Mafia chieftain Tony Soprano's blood and mob family. Amazing acting, great writing and stories. It's still my favorite TV show and always will. The show is notorious for it's abrasive use of profanity, shocking violence and nudity/sexuality. Certainly not for kids under the age of 17.
I love The Sopranos! Can't wait for season 6, which airs in early 2006. Quite a wait. I take it that the crew is on hiatus.
