A tenor isn't disposed to use such a loud bass voice (10)
I believe the answer is:
stentorian
'use such a loud bass voice' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'a tenor isn't disposed' is the wordplay.
'disposed' is an anagram indicator.
'a'+'tenor'+'isnt'='atenorisnt'
'atenorisnt' anagrammed gives 'STENTORIAN'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stentorian that I've seen before include "booming" , "(Of a person's voice) loud and powerful" , "Strident" .)
