Princess Catherine Showcases Piano Skills at Eurovision Grand Finale

Princess Catherine of Wales, known for her multi-talents, recently impressed the audience with her piano skills at the 2023 Eurovision Grand Finale.

Adding to her impressive repertoire, she also hosted a community carol service and concert, where she confidently accompanied Scottish singer-songwriter Tom Walker in a breathtaking performance surrounded by the warm glow of candlelight at Westminster Abbey.

It appears that musical talent runs in the family, as Princess Catherine revealed that her daughter, Princess Charlotte, has recently taken up piano lessons.

The topic of Princess Charlotte's newfound hobby came up during a conversation between Princess Catherine and celebrated pianist Lang Lang at the Royal Variety Performance last month.

Lang Lang later shared the encounter, mentioning that Princess Catherine expressed her belief that with enough practice, Princess Charlotte could become as skilled as him.

During a Christmas carol service, Princess Catherine shared her admiration for Jacob Collier, who played George Michael's “Last Christmas” on John Lennon's old piano.

She mentioned that both she and Charlotte had been watching his piano performances on YouTube.

In a lighthearted exchange, Catherine jokingly discussed her daughter's piano practice with Collier, who playfully remarked on her impressive performance in 2021.

Tom Walker, who performed alongside Princess Catherine, admitted that she was quite nervous during their first rehearsal, as it had been a long time since she had played with another musician.

However, her nerves didn't show during the holiday performance, as she delivered an outstanding rendition.

Walker praised her professionalism, revealing that the studio and even the band were unaware of their collaboration until the last minute.

Despite having only one hour of rehearsal, Princess Catherine played the song flawlessly, impressing everyone present.

Walker described the experience as surreal, highlighting Princess Catherine's kindness and gratitude towards everyone involved.

He expressed his own excitement at being able to perform alongside her and his band in such a beautiful venue, with memories that he won't soon forget.

According to reports, Princess Catherine reached grade three on the piano, with grade eight being the highest performance level recognized by the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music.

Her former piano teacher, Danielle Nichols, who taught her from the age of 11 until 13, praised her dedication and pleasant demeanor.

While it was evident that she wouldn't become a concert pianist, Nichols acknowledged her talent and commitment to her lessons.

Princess Catherine's musical abilities extend beyond the piano, as she also studied singing and the flute.

She achieved grade five in both singing and music theory.

In a throwback video shared on TikTok, an 11-year-old Kate showcased her singing talents during a school production of “My Fair Lady,” where she flawlessly performed the song “Wouldn't It Be Loverly” as the leading lady, Eliza Doolittle.

The Princess of Wales continues to impress with her diverse talents, proving that she is not only a royal figure but also a gifted musician.

With her piano skills on display at the Eurovision Grand Finale, Princess Catherine captivated the audience and showcased her love for music, inspiring her daughter and many others along the way.
