The Celestial Chorus
The Celestial Chorus is a concept from Wagner's opera "Tannhäuser," symbolizing a divine or heavenly assembly of voices. It represents angelic or spiritual beings singing in harmony, often depicted as a radiant, uplifting chorus that signifies purity, transcendence, and the realm of the divine. In a broader sense, it can be understood as a poetic metaphor for harmony and unity among celestial or spiritual entities, emphasizing the beauty and majesty of the divine realm through music and collective voices.
