We've celebrated choral music all month long during April, our Voices of Spring month.

But we certainly didn't do it alone; this has been a shared celebration. Early in the month, we asked you, our listeners, to nominate your choral favorites. After assembling a ballot of the top 100, we asked you to vote.

After carefully tabulating those votes, today, we present the top 25 as voted by you.

Listen 6:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. as we play them on the air, and watch this page as we reveal your top 25:
