Georgia Brown, pseudonym of Rossana Monti [1] (born June 29, 1980) is an Italian Brazilian singer noted for her extensive vocal range. She was listed in the 2005 Guinness World Records for hitting the highest vocal note and for possessing the greatest vocal range for a female, claimed to be exactly eight octaves from G2–G10 using scientific pitch notation.[2] However, as of 2013, Tim Storms holds the record for the widest vocal range of any human with 10 octaves, with the caveat that much of Storms's vocal range is infrasound that cannot be heard and that all of Brown's range is within the range of the human ear.[3]

In 2004, she released her second album Heart Beats, which became certified platinum in Brazil. She headlined first international tour "Heart Beats World Tour" in 2004. In the same year, Brown broke American singer Mariah Carey's vocal records on Guinness World Records and received a certificate for two records: "World's Greatest Vocal Range "G2/G10 - 8 octaves" and "World's Highest Note "G10".[2]
