“You did amazing on the show. We’ve used you as a reference for some of the best choirs we’ve ever had,” he said.

Another judge Howie Mandel said the choir was his favourite.

“For me, this is my favourite choir that’s ever been on AGT,” he said.

Their chilling performance resulted in a standing ovation from the audience and judges.

New judge Heidi Klum said: “This was my first time with you guys and I loved it. I love how vibrant you are, inside and out.”

Howie further said they were singing like professionals.

“Traditionally, I don’t respond to choirs. When I see choirs, I always have the same comment, which is: ‘I feel like it’s a school assembly and it’s nice for that.’ This didn’t look like an assembly. This looked like a finished broadway show,” he said.
