Prince treated to piano performance by nine-year-old girl

The Prince of Wales was treated to a piano performance at Buckingham Palace, by a nine-year-old girl playing a piece called The Prince.

Pianist Charlotte Kwok performed at a gala concert Charles hosted on Monday for The Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama - of which he is the Patron - in the palace's ballroom.

Dame Shirley Bassey, actor Michael Sheen and singer Bryn Terfel also watched Charlotte, who attends the College's Junior Conservatoire, along with performances from students at the College.

Charlotte said: "I was probably the most excited I have ever been."

Congratulating Charlotte on her performance of Frank Bridge's The Prince after greeting the audience in Welsh, Charles said: "We are so lucky to have an example of such creativity and talent at such a young age."
