choral performances

Ensemble vocal presentations

Choral performances are musical presentations by a choir or chorus—a group singing together, typically in multiple voice parts.

The term covers everything from church choir concerts to large-scale orchestral works featuring massed voices: The choral performances at the cathedral draw crowds every Christmas season.
