So is the voice described as higher? One man’s comments implied so but I wasn’t sure.

If so than another myth smashed….that he was deep-voiced.

Because there was no way to amplify sound back then orators intentionally pitched their voices high so that the sound would carry.

Yes. Many accounts of his high pitch.
