vocalist

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'she sings' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'a register below various other choir leaders' is the wordplay.
'register' becomes 'list' (listing is a kind of registering).
'below' says to put letters next to each other (in a down clue, some letters go below others).
'leaders' says to take the initial letters.
The first letters of 'various other choir' is 'voc'.
'a'+'list'='alist'
'alist' after 'voc' is 'VOCALIST'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for vocalist that I've seen is " Singer with a pop group".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
