The succentor ("under-singer") is the assistant to the precentor, typically in an ancient cathedral foundation, helping with the preparation and conduct of the liturgy including psalms, preces and responses.

 Lichfield used the title "subchanter".
 Westminster Abbey also retains the tradition; Brecon Cathedral has only a succentor, and no precentor.
 The succentor is normally a minor canon.
