chapel choir

Sacred vocal ensemble

A chapel choir is a vocal ensemble that performs in a chapel, typically associated with a school, college, or religious institution.

These choirs often specialize in sacred music and may sing at services, ceremonies, and concerts: The chapel choir rehearses every Tuesday evening.

The term suggests a smaller, more intimate group than a cathedral choir.
