Due to the physics of how waveforms work, similar sounds have a tendency to reinforce each other. Thus, having many people sing a song in unison reinforces the song and makes it more dramatic. In other words, a powerful choir can be used for the musical equivalent of Chewing the Scenery. In works where the music is not generally choral, a sudden burst of song can add to a dramatic moment. Contrast Ethereal Choir, where the choir sings in the background to lend an ethereal air to the scene, or a Cherubic Choir, which is intended to sound lighthearted and innocent, or Gospel Choirs Are Just Better, to make the song more soulful. Often overlaps with Ominous Latin Chanting. Compare Orchestral Bombing and Ominous Pipe Organ. Compare One-Woman Wail, when a single person sings a melancholic tune in the background, and Self-Backing Vocalist if the lead singer(s) provide their vocals as the choir. |

Cats Don't Dance: The Dark Reprise of "Big and Loud" is mainly accompanied by a choir and Ominous Pipe Organ. In the song, Darla Dimple shows her Bitch in Sheep's Clothing side as she sings about how she's going to ruin the heroes' careers. | |

Sam Smith: "Stay With Me" has a mellow gospel choir joining the chorus about pleading for their fling to stay for the night. Smith created the choir by overdubbing themself multiple times to give the illusion of a large volume of people singing at once. | |

Sabaton commonly uses choirs in its songs, especially for emphasis on the chorus. Early on, before they had the resources to hire a professional choir, the band members often recorded a three-part harmony for particular songs, starting with "Primo Victoria". For the European portion of the Great Tour, Sabaton had a 21-member male choir onstage with them, dressed as World War I soldiers of all armies in the conflict. The page picture is from their headlining show at Wacken Open Air 2019, during the chorus of "The Price of a Mile": by the end of that concert, with the addition of several former band members on the right-hand stage, a total of 28 people were singing the choruses. Several parts of "Livgardet" use a multi-part male-fronted choir for extra dramatics. |

Doctor Who: In "The Rings of Akhaten", The Doctor discovers that young Merry Gejelh is to be offered as a sacrifice to keep the god of Akhaten from awakening. The Doctor and Clara save her from the withered mummy that they think is being worshipped, only to realize that it was merely the "alarm clock" and that the star at the heart of the system is the god, and that it has awakened. The Doctor moves Clara and Merry to relative safety, then returns to the temple to confront the god, known as "Grandfather". Merry, hoping to support the Doctor, leads the various races gathered together in a choral performance of "The Long Song" to help bolster him with the psychic resonance, as The Doctor offers up his memories to the stellar deity. | |
