In choral music, the soprano voice typically sings the melody and is often considered the highest voice part, while the alto voice provides harmony and support. In a discant, which is a type of counterpoint where a melody is elaborated with additional notes, it is usually the soprano that sings the discant line above the alto. Thus, the soprano voice is more commonly associated with singing discants.
