Singer that’s forgotten organist’s central piece (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tenor

'singer' is the definition.
(I know that tenor is a type of singer)

'forgotten organist's central piece' is the wordplay.
'piece' indicates a hidden word.
'TENOR' can be found hidden inside 'forgotten organists central'.

'that's' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for tenor that I've seen before include "Higher male voice" , "High voice - low bell" , "character" , "Vocal range" , "General meaning of a male voice" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
