Westminster Abbey Music: Choir, Organ, and Evensong Guide

In Gothic space, sound is an architecture you can’t see—but feel.

The Choir

• Centuries‑old choral foundation; treble voices soaring under stone.
• Regular services: Matins, Eucharist, and Choral Evensong.

The Organ & Acoustics

• Large pipe organ supports hymnody and ceremonial splendour.
• Reverberation enriches choral textures; clarity varies by position.

Visiting Tips

• Evensong is free; arrive early for good seating.
• Keep silence; no photography during worship.

Bottom Line

Come for the building; stay for the sound.
