Claire Jones was appointed the official harpist to the Prince of Wales in 2007
|
|
and has taken part in more than 150 royal performances.
|
|
|
|
She said: "There's only such a small group of people that are being allowed to
|
|
perform at the wedding. And ... myself being alone in the private part of the
|
|
day, as the musician at that part of the day ... it's just a phenomenal
|
|
experience that's going to be ahead of me."
|
|
|
|
Jones says her repertoire for the event has not yet been decided but she is
|
|
looking forward to sharing ideas on the selection with William and Kate.
|
|
|
|
"I'm sure because of the connection with North Wales there'll be a couple of
|
|
Welsh pieces in there, and also obviously my background is as a classical
|
|
musician.
|
|
|
|
"I usually perform classical pieces like Bach, Handel, from the Baroque period
|
|
all the way through to the Romantic really, so there'll be a nice mixture I'm
|
|
sure."
