A disease which primarily afflicts altos, causing them to stop being roped into boring harmonies that you can't even hear over the sopranos and start singing with the tenors, usually better and with more power. Despite being a disease, it is often considered a blessing to those with true tenor ranges who are being held down by the man and/or traditional gender roles.
Conductor: Alex, I didn't hear you on that harmony.
Alex: Sorry, man, I've got tenoritis.
Jill: Kat, I'm so sick of not being heard.
Kat: Let's go sing with Lilly, she's got tenoritis. It's super contagious.

A noun, originated in late 21st century America, in a small NY suburb. Anything that is contained under the category of a tenor statement or idea, which generally proclaim tenors as gods, as we all know them to be.
"A choir without a tenor is like a car without a muffler. You can pretend not to notice, but in the end, you know it's driving you up the wall." This statement is a Tenorism.

Any of a vast assortment of wise sayings and facts that are held only by Tenors (the uppermost men's voice in a choral ensemble). It is revealed only to those in the choral world that the tenors themselves feel worthy.
John Doe revealed to the alto section some incredible tenorisms that blew them away with his supreme wisdom.

It is the study to be a perfect tenor, which is the best part in the entire choir section. If one is of Tenorism, he is perfect and without blemish in the music world that so needs to be influenced by the perfectness of Tenorism.
That not you sang was almost Tenorism

1. An instrument that is superior in all ways to any other saxophones,
especially the alto. The ultimate sex machine, designed initially to woo ladies
and cause spontaneous pants removal, but later used in jazz music. The weapon
of choice for godly figures, like Thor and Mars.
2. An instrument that requires a hefty amount of hallucinogenic drugs to
generate the optimal improvisational solo.
3. A tool of great justice.
1. "Damn, Michael Brecker can do whatever the hell he wants to with a tenor
sax."
"Yeah, I bet he can feed hungry orphans with that thing."
2. "Dude, Coltrane must have been smoking something good when he played Giant
Steps, because these changes are fucking redonkulous."
3. " And then I foiled his evil plan with my Tenor Saxophone."

A saxophone that is lower than an alto, and higher than a bari. They are commonly used in jazz bands, and musicians who play it are often very good at soloing/improvising.
The tenor sax player was given a standing ovation for his solo.
