Though I do note that the MIDI is not playing anything that even resembles Westminster Abbey. Or anything else, but that's another question.

Probably because the page has it set to Oriel instead, with alternate choices of Urbs beata and St. Audrey listed at the bottom.

Don't you just love that system of interchangeable tunes and texts? That's how you get "Amazing Grace" set to the Theme from Gilligan's Island, or (as an Episcopal priest of my acquaintance told us he wanted sung at his funeral) the Doxology ("Praise God, from whom all blessings flow") set to Hernando's Hideaway. Or worse yet, "O Little Town of Bethlehem" set to House of the Rising Sun.
