Two choirs, one orchestra and two fanfare teams will be performing music for the wedding service of Prince William and Miss Catherine Middleton on Friday 29th April at Westminster Abbey.

These will include:

  • The Choir of Westminster Abbey
  • The London Chamber Orchestra
  • The Fanfare Team from the Central Band of the Royal Air Force
  • The State Trumpeters of The Household Cavalry

The choirs will be directed by Mr James O'Donnell, the Organist and Master of the Choristers at Westminster Abbey.

Both Prince William and Miss Middleton have taken a great deal of interest and care in choosing the music for their wedding service. Music on the big day will include a number of well-known hymns and choral works in addition to some specially comissioned pieces.

Following the wedding service at Westminster Abbey, Claire Jones, the Official Harpist to HRH The Prince of Wales will perform at the reception hosted by Her Majesty the Queen at Buckingham Palace.
