choir of angels
Celestial singing group
A choir of angels is a division or rank within the celestial hierarchy—traditionally nine orders including seraphim, cherubim, thrones, and others.
The phrase also describes any group of angels, especially when imagined singing in heaven: A choir of angels welcomed her into paradise.
Figuratively, it suggests sublime or heavenly sound: The harmony was like a choir of angels.
