メトロポリタン歌劇場について書かれた本の中の一文です。
"You never hear about mezzos or baritones or basses “losing” their voice, but sopranos and tenors live in fear of that – especially of losing the so-colled money notes at the top, which is what the fans are waiting for."

一般人が体験するためお金を費やすほど、プロ歌手の音域でしか出来ないハイノートの事。プロ歌手の『売り』。
The sentence is describing the exceptionally high voice notes that only a pro singer is capable of, and hence, the notes that "pay the bills."
Similarly for guitar players, there is a saying that "you can't make any money on the first few frets." In other words, you must be able to command the entire range of notes in order to cash in on your skill.
The "money notes" of a singer seperate the pros from the rest of us. Mariah Carey comes to mind...
