Her involvement in the performance was kept completely secret until the broadcast aired, marking the second time that the princess has shown her musical talent.For her segment, which was filmed earlier this month in the Crimson Drawing Room of Windsor Castle, Kate sat at a grand piano for a ten-second instrumental performance, which was created by Joe Price and Kojo Samuel. She honored the Ukrainian flag while wearing a cobalt blue, one-shouldered gown by Jenny Packham, and accessorized with a pair of silver pendant earrings.
Andrew Lloyd Webber, Joss Stone, last year’s Eurovision runner-up Sam Ryder, and other British musicians also joined the performance of Kalush Orchestra’s winning track from last year’s contest, “Stefania.”
The Prince and Princess of Wales shared the performance on their official Instagram account. “A #Eurovision surprise,” reads the caption. “A pleasure to join Kalush Orchestra in a special performance of last year’s winning @eurovision entry. Enjoy the show, Liverpool.”
