  • Alto is a musical term, derived from the Latin word altus, meaning "high", that has several possible interpretations. When designating instruments, "alto" frequently refers to a member of an instrumental family that has the second highest range, below that of the treble or soprano. Hence, for example, the term "alto saxophone".
