Edmund Hooper (c. 1553 – 1621) was an English composer and organist. He was employed at Westminster Abbey from 1588 to 1621 and organist of the Chapel Royal from 1618 to 1621. He was born in North Halberton, Devon, c. 1553. He may have been a chorister at Exeter Cathedral. By 1582 he was a member of the choir of Westminster Abbey where he became Master of the Choristers. Hooper appears to have been the first regularly appointed organist of the abbey; his patent, dated 19 May 1606, was renewed
