The concert broadcast on December 24 attracted the attention of a large British and international public. The one-hour special program featured many singers and artists such as Leona Lewis, Ellie Goulding, Tom Felton… In particular, Princess Kate’s piano performance took the spotlight. The Duchess of Cambridge, in a red outfit with a strong Christmas atmosphere, played the piano under candlelight, with an elegant appearance and radiant smile, an image that moved many people.
Princess Kate’s surprise piano performance caused a stir on social networks.
While Tom Walker performed the song ‘For Those Who Can’t Be Here’, Princess Kate accompanied him on the piano. She came up with this idea after meeting Walker and hearing him perform at a charity event in October.
Walker praised Kate for being “a talented musician” and said that although she was nervous the first time they practiced together, she still invested a lot of time and effort. In the end, they had a perfect performance together.
Although Kate has played the piano since she was a child, this style of music feels different when she practices at home and when preparing for this Christmas night. Walker gave Kate a copy to practice on her own before the show and was shocked to see how quickly she improved.
‘We went through it together about 9 times and by the last time she completely mastered it, then she practiced on her own for a few days before officially filming,’ Walker shared. ‘It wasn’t easy. When you have to sit and play with many musicians that you have never played with before and also have to record it in front of the camera, but she did it excellently.’
Walker said he had met Princess Kate several times at various charity events, and the most recent time she contacted his team, inviting him to perform at a royal event. Walker was extremely surprised to hear Kate’s idea of wanting to accompany him on the piano because before that, he did not know that Princess Kate knew how to play the piano. When practicing, they had to sit at opposite ends of the room, far away from each other to stay safe amid the stressful epidemic situation, but in the end, this did not affect the results.
We have gone through many challenges. We have lost loved ones. We have witnessed frontline forces working under heavy pressure. We are also more susceptible to thoughts, social isolation, and loneliness. But I think through that separation, we realized how much we need each other, realized how acts of kindness and love bring comfort and relief in difficult times. How difficult is it?
“Music has been important to me during the pandemic. I also think it has been important to many people. But most of all, we are celebrating goodwill, acts of kindness, love, empathy, and compassion hidden to help people get through these difficult times,” Kate shared.
“Princess Kate scored a hit with her Christmas performance.
Princess Kate’s performance caused a stir on social networks after the show aired. Netizens praised the performance: ‘Very elegant’, ‘Kate is truly beautiful inside and out, William can hardly find anyone better than her’, ‘It’s true that the future Queen is different.’, ‘Kate is very worthy of becoming our future Queen’…”
“Harry Potter actor Tom Felton appeared with a performance reading the poem ‘Letter from a Soldier to His Sister’.”
