heavenly choir
Celestial singing ensemble
A heavenly choir is an assembly of angels singing in praise of God, a standard feature of Christian imagery depicting paradise.
The phrase extends to any group producing transcendent or celestial-sounding music: When the orchestra hit that final chord, it sounded like a heavenly choir.
Someone hearing a heavenly choir may be having a religious vision—or dying.
