angel choir
Celestial vocal ensemble
An angel choir is a group of angels singing together, as depicted in religious art and Christmas imagery—the heavenly host announcing Christ's birth to shepherds.
The term extends to any chorus producing ethereally beautiful sound: The children's voices rose like an angel choir.
In church architecture, an angel choir may refer to carved or painted angels arranged as if singing.
