Here’s a quick update on the Westminster Abbey Choir (Choir of Westminster Abbey):
- The Abbey has begun streaming its Abbey Choir recordings on major platforms, expanding access beyond CDs and downloads. This means more listeners can enjoy a broad catalogue of choral works online.[1]
- There are occasional news items about choir recruitment and touring activities, including new choristers and notable performances, though many local or regional outlets cover these stories rather than national headlines.[2][4]
- Historic collaborations and high-profile performances have occurred in the past, such as joint events with the Sistine Chapel Choir, which highlight the choir’s long-standing role in royal and liturgical occasions.[3]
If you’d like, I can narrow to:
- Current season performances and streams (dates, livestreams, and venues)
- Recent chorister news (new recruits, bursaries, and education programs)
- Notable recent or upcoming joint performances with other choirs
Please tell me which angle you prefer and I’ll pull the most relevant details.
