Kate Middletonis hosting aholiday carol concertat Westminster Abbey on Dec. 15 — and wants the public to help select the music.
“Help us decide the final carolfor Together at Christmas,” a message on the Prince and Princess of Wales' Twitter account read.
Those wanting to participate can head over to the social media platform and vote on one of the three options Kate has narrowed it down to: “Hark! The Herald,” “Joy To The World,” and —currently in the lead— “O Come, All Ye Faithful.”
This is the second year in a row that Kate has organized Together At Christmas, which brings together members of the royal family with charity staff, community volunteers, frontline workers, military personnel and more to “celebrate the joythat human connection can bring,” Buckingham Palace said in a Nov. 4 release.
In a touching tribute, this year’s Christmas concert will also honor the lateQueen Elizabeth II, who died in September at age 96. The service will showcase the values she upheld through her remarkable life and reign, like empathy, compassion, and support for others.

“Without doubt, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience,” the 30-year-old artist said of their duet. “I thought she absolutely smashed the performance; it’s not easy to just jump behind a piano with a bunch of musicians you’ve never played with before and record live takes to camera, but she completely nailed it.”
“She’s such a lovely, kind and warm-hearted person and she took the time to thank everyone personally for the opportunity to play together. It was a crazy pinch-yourself kind of day for me, to be in such a beautiful venue playing alongside the Duchess with my band and a string quartet. I certainly won’t forget that in a hurry!”
