Choral contingent (5)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
altos
'choral contingent' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for altos that I've seen before include "Choir members" , "Lowest female singing voices" , "Females who sing in the lowest range" , "Singers" , "High male or low female voices" .)
