Editing Romsey Abbey (section)

===Choir===
Romsey Abbey has a choir of boy choristers (only formed in the late 19th Century) and a back row of adult altos, tenors and basses drawn from the local area. Owing to the original foundation of the Abbey, the traditional choir was of young women. Today there is a choir of girls, a senior girls choir, a training choir of youngsters and a consort of voluntary singers and members of the congregation who sing when the choirs are on holiday. Over the years the choirs have recorded multiple CDs, sung for royalty, enjoyed choir tours to numerous UK Cathedrals, Belgium, Italy and France and have a twinning relationship with a German choir from [[Mülheim an der Ruhr]]. They have appeared numerous times on BBC ''[[Songs of Praise]]'' as well as featuring in a BBC Documentary in 2018. The current director of music is Martin Seymour. {{Citation needed|date=October 2023}}
