angelic choir

Celestial vocal ensemble

An angelic choir is a group of angels singing in harmony, especially as depicted in religious art and scripture praising God in heaven.

The phrase evokes ethereal, transcendent music: The painting showed an angelic choir surrounding the throne.

Figuratively, any group producing unusually beautiful vocal music might be compared to one: The children's voices sounded like an angelic choir.
