There will be no congregational singing during the funeral.
Instead, a small choir of four, comprising three lay clarks from the St George’s Chapel choir and a soprano, who is a member of the St George’s community, will perform each piece of music.
The choir will be located in the Nave of the chapel, away from the congregation, seated in the Quire.
A Buckingham Palace spokesman explained that although the Duke had personally chosen all of the music, it had been adapted in order to be performed by a small group.
The music is also expected to include the sailors’ hymn
