Tenor's choral colleague (4)

I believe the answer is:

alto

(Other definitions for alto that I've seen before include "Kind of singing voice, male or female" , "Woman's singing voice" , "Low female singing voice" , "Counter-tenor or contralto" , "Highest male voice: lowest female voice" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post.
