"An oktavist is an exceptionally deep-ranged basso profondo, especially typical
of Russian Orthodox choral music. This voice type has a vocal range which
extends down to A1 (an octave below the baritone range) and sometimes to F1 (an
octave below the bass staff) with the extreme lows for oktavists, such as
Mikhail Zlatopolsky or Alexander Ort, reaching C1."
Those are some very low notes! Via Jennifer Ouellette and Jim Donegan.
