“Join the chorus”

Hi Strands fans. I struggled a bit with today’s puzzle, first because the theme of “Join the chorus” had me thinking of pop songs, but also because I know next to nothing about choirs.
So my heart sank when the clue I used gave me ALTO. I know just enough about choirs to know that’s a related term, but not many other words to add to it.
Still, I was able to get TENOR in the bottom-left corner, and then I looked for the spangram. I found CHOIRPART spelt backwards across the board to helpfully split the grid in two.
I’d not heard the term, but I guessed MEZZO would make use of the double ‘Z’, and that cleared space for TREBLE and SOPRANO above it.
I then found BASS underneath the spangram, and that just left me to unpick BARITONE from the remaining characters to complete the puzzle.
