Kate surprises concert with piano performance

The Duchess of Cambridge has surprised The Audience at a community carol service with her piano playing skills.

Kate appeared alongside the musician Tom Walker in a clip shown at the Westminster Abbey event.

The pair took part In Secret filming at a recording studio ahead of The Concert , which was broadcast on ITV.

Royal Carols: Together At Christmas was staged for people who supported their communities during the Covid pandemic.

A clip of The Duchess performing with Walker on his previously unheard Christmas song, For Those Who Can't Be Here, has been posted on the Kensington Palace Twitter feed.

British singer-songwriter Walker said he was approached by The Duchess after they met at a charity event.

Walker said: " We got together, we rehearsed The Song like nine times and by the end of it she'd absolutely nailed it, And Then she went away for a couple of days and practised it, And Then we finally got to do the recording of it.

" And I was really impressed because it's one thing playing along with me in a studio, just the two of us, but then to jump straight in to playing with a live String Quartet and a pianist and two backing singers. "

The Duchess has passed her grade three piano and grade five theory.

In a recorded introduction to The Service , Kate praised the " inspirational" people who have served their communities during the " bleak time" of the pandemic.

Kate said the UK had faced " many challenges" during Covid, including the deaths of loved ones, and frontline workers coming under " immense pressure".

Other members of the Royal Family at The Service included Prince William, Zara and Mike Tindall , Sophie Wessex, and Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.
