Ruby Helder has a very unique voice. She was dubbed the girl tenor because of her super low voice. This voice type has been unofficially dubbed the contralto profundo:

not sure if it is exactely the right thread for this but I think it fits.
We have not had discussions in this one, but maybe we can start with Bruce Xiaoyu Liu.
Does anyone know him? I suppose maybe @4everchan does?
I discovered him through an Arte-biopic where they put together bits from a recital in Paris and interviews of him and his coach, Đặng Thái Sơn.
Arte is a german/french TV station. As Bruce is Canadian, I put the French version here, but it's easy to switch languages in the right above corner (drop down menu).

But be aware, they like to geoblock things and I'm not sure which countries outside of France, german speaking ones and a some others in central Europe can access this.
In any case, Bruce is Canadian but was born in Paris to Chinese parents. He is tri-lingual (is that a term?) and got known to a larger audience with his win of the 2021 International Chopin Piano Competition.

The above mentioned recital in Paris was this one from Jan 2022:

And in case you're interested in the coaching work between Liu and Son (himself a former winner of the International Chopin Piano Competition), this might be worth clicking:
