Morphology
The meaning 'the quality or tone of a person's voice when singing' is directly derivable from combining 'singing' (making musical sounds with the voice) and 'voice' (the sound produced by a person). This simple noun+noun composition follows regular English compounding patterns and is cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily understand the MWE.
Etymology
Singing voice comes from the simple idea that the words singing and voice point to the sound you make when you sing, not your 'speaking' voice. That's why singing voice means the particular tone or quality your voice has while singing.
