Lionel Richie, American, who in the 80s raged with a mixture of disco, soul and funk, who was the first ambassador of the Prince's Trust, a charity founded by Carlo, is one of the certainties of the evening. His All Night Long, danceable and carefree, could be one of the anthems of the concert.

The British Take That will be there with three members of the original band: the reassuring Gary Barlow with Howard Donald and Mark Owen. A cousin of Queen Elizabeth revealed that Barlow was one of the monarch's favourites. Instead, the more transgressive Robbie Williams, fugitive and destroyer of the group, almost a Prince Harry of pop, would have said no.

California pop star Katy Perry will sing for the new king. It was not expected but it is not a surprise: the singer, judge of American Idol, is among the faithful of Charles, former ambassador of the British Asian Trust, founded by the then prince in 2020.

Andrea Bocelli also performs, one of the most beloved Italian singers in the world, a symbol of Italian bel canto at an international level, who was first in the charts in Great Britain, the only Italian to perform on Sunday afternoon on the occasion of the coronation of Elisabetta's son who in the past had invited him to his Jubilee. "Being able to offer my contribution within a historical and artistic event of such importance, I consider it a great privilege and a certificate of affection and esteem. That is very grateful."

Bocelli will perform a duet with his long-time friend the Welsh bass-baritone Sir Bryn Terfel. In 2003 the Prince of Wales made him a Commander of the Order of the British Empire.

The British singer-songwriter Freya Ridings, esteemed and institutional artist, has been confirmed: in 2022 she performed during the celebration of the centenary of the foundation of the Wimbledon Tournament; on stage with the composer Alexis Ffrench, also a loyalist of Charles in The Prince's Trust.

Rumor has it at court that Charles would have liked both Adele and Ed Sheeran. Both would have declined the invitation: with Ed too busy preparing for a tour in Texas, and Adele out of action for unspecified reasons. Even Harry Styles would not be able to fit the concert with other previous commitments. Kylie Minogue said no and, as you might have imagined, Elton John, a friend of Princess Diana, won't be there either. The umpteenth Spice Girls reunion will not take place at Windsor Castle because the artists would have needed more time to rehearse.
