I would really like to know what my vocal range is called. On the piano, I can sustain from Low D to High C I don't know all the classifications (Tennor, alto, soprano etc..) but if anyone knows what this is, I'd be grateful! Thank You, Kat.

From http://www.music.vt.edu/musicdictionary/textv/Vocalrange.html A vocal range of about C above the treble clef to about Middle C is the range of a soprano. The range from F in the top of the treble clef to F below Middle C is the alto range. The range from G above Middle C to C below Middle C would be that of a tenor, and the range of Middle C to C below the bass clef would be the range of a bass. A mezzo soprano (often referred to as simply a "mezzo") would be between the soprano and alto, a baritone would be between the tenor and bass, and a contralto would be a low alto, or simply an alto. Usually soprano, mezzo soprano, alto and contralto are female voices and tenor, baritone, and bass are male. Copy and pasted. www.meltheco.org.au
