Raised during copyedit

Some things cropped up in today's copyedit which are more than just copyediting issues:

• "suoni bianchi" in the Italin WP article doesn't mean white sound :)). In the Italian WP article Canto (musica), we read: ""Le voci dei bambini, prima della pubertà, sono chiamate voci bianche." So perhaps "child-like sound" would be all right, but Zingarelli also mentions castrati, which may not sound so child-like. I've tried "fluty" but ...
• English WP is inconsistent about the plural of haute-contre but the French WP uses hautes-contre, so I've gone with that.
• The comment at the end of note 3 seems exactly right and I suspect the "also" in the last sentence of the lead reflects a misunderstanding: isn't the first sentence trying to describe this "mixed register". Is there any second meaning?
