@@yeeaahhzz That is exactly what I am saying. 1. Concerning Diana's popularity- SOME OF IT was problematic, because the paparazzi were very invasive.

Concerning Charles and Camilla- Charles met and obviously liked Camilla when he was about 20, and she was mentioned, among other, as a possible match. But he went away with the navy and she married an handsome Cavelry Officer, who was always a "ladies' man" Charles maintained a friendship with both of them, and had a brief relationship with Camilla in about 1978. At the time he was traumatised over the assassination of his uncle and his trip to Ireland to identify and bring home three bodies.. So what happened with Camilla was comfort, rather than a grand Romance. She just happened to be there when he needed someone. Six years after the marriage to Diana, when Diana had proved to be an incredibly bitch, neurotic, self-harming, attention-demanding and promiscuous, two of Charles' friends (who Diana had isolated from him) asked Camilla to find out why he was in such a state of depression. Well, the marriage had ended two years earlier when Diana was found in "a compromising situation" with her security officer. While pregnant with Harry. So Camilla came back into his life and had been there ever since. . 3. The various stories that you hear about Charles wearing cufflinks she gave him, Diana finding a present for her, Diana overhearing a phone conversation .....There are explanations which I will not go into right now. Just let me say that Diana had been paranoid all her life... and it took very little to make her feel that she was being neglected, abused or cheated on. ....
It’s not surprising given her love and talent for dance. Most girls born into British aristocracy were (still) given piano, dance, language, horse riding lessons etc as conditioning for future roles in society as wives. Most (still) don’t get professional degrees in law, medicine, science etc but in arts. She prob could’ve played the entire piece quite well but had to save Charles’ fragile ego. Maybe she knew showing true musical talent didn’t fit with the public image being sold by BRF/The Firm to avoid her ever outshining the future king. Charles was prob lectured her later in private and made sure his staff prevented that ever happening again. Its the way he was raised.
@ac McG No. Although The Crown is based off the Royal family, it is a dramatization. However, Diana has verbalized most of the accounts on her own throughout interviews and tapes. Diana loved playing the piano and was very accomplished. She practiced dance and did want to be a professional dancer until she was too tall. It is well documented that Charles was jealous of Diana’s popularity. He often criticized her and said horrible things to knock her down. He did verbally, mentally and emotionally abuse her. There are so many videos of Diana’s life and times available on YT as well as books to read.
I'm a musician and I can tell she did it perfectly well, without music sheets, and it's a very complicated piece. I mean, it's Rachmaninoff. Period. Charles was envious of Diana because she always stole "his" spotlight, but come on man, you "played" (horribly wrong) open strings and she played a complicated passage with her charm. Diana: 1 Charles: 0
Imagine the stupidity of Diana? She is not the future King, her role is to walk by his side, to augment the light shown on HIM, not to be centre-stage.
This is priceless! I had no idea she played the piano. Then again, she was a well-brought-up young lady. Learning to play a musical instrument is part of that upbringing. She obviously played well! I'm so glad we have this footage.
Yes I'm so glad we have the footage as proof that she upstaged Charles here , there and everywhere . No wonder he ran off to Camilla so he could play polo and go fox hunting 😂😂
She is playing Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto 2 in C Minor, Movement 3. The Song Full Moon and Empty Arms (1945 Frank Sinatra) is based on this. Diana appears to have been put on the spot here and wanted a quick exit. I believe that she had the technical skills to play the piece admirably in a proper setting with a relaxed atmosphere.
Extraordinarily talented woman in the arts, both musically gifted and a great dancer. What a shame she was never given the chance to blossom in her marriage
Seems Diana is something of a dark horse! We knew she was a keen and passionate dancer, but to knock out a short passage of Rachmaninov’s second piano concerto in such a casual yet shy fashion is very impressive! This isn’t Beethoven’s Fur Elise, or Mozart’s Turkish March - this is music that transcends the amateur and reveals a musical aptitude of considerably greater depth. Very impressive.
yes, she did hit a couple of "sour" notes while she was playing. but she was nervous and was not prepared to play. i understand though, her grandmother, ruth lady femoy is a concert pianist. and a very accomplished one at that.
Its NOT about talent. Charles was the heir - not Diana - the would not rule together. Her job was to support him - what she never did... Camilla doing a far better job
That theme is from her favourite romantic movie which is one of mine; A Brief Encounter 1945; her butler Paul Burrell said she would ask him to watch this movie together many times.

She was soo adorable. How humble is she? You'd think she's clueless to play until you hear her in the piano. Almost all the videos I've seen of Diana and Charles, she ALWAYS ALWAYS outshines him. :p
This is not a schoolgirl you are watching. This is a woman of about twenty-one. A person who has successfully pursued, charmed and married a Prince. Her behaviour was not "sweet" or "cute". It was extremely immature. .
i think what is being portrayed is a princess who can act like a normal person when put on the spot like that. it was cute when she shrugged her shoulders and quickly walked out.
It didn't take Diana long to figure out that Charles hated being upstaged so she allowed herself to shine for a moment but I totally believe she ran off realizing she was going to get a tongue lashing from Charles afterward for being just plain more talented and personable than him............AGAIN!
Princess Diana was well taught by her grandmother (Lady Ruth Fermoy) who was a celebrated pianist in her own time while being the Queens Mother best friend and Lady in Waiting.
twintron4. Ho Hum! The word that you are looking for is "envious" not "jealous". They really do mean two different things. I really doubt if Charles was envious about her piano playing. THe reason that she was MUCH more competent was that she had pino lessons in her childhood and teens from avery competent Grandmother. She continued to practice piano after her marriage, because a place like Buckingham Palace has pianos in numerous rooms. On the othe hand, Charles had studied cello for a short time in hiis teens, then went to Australia for a year, then went into the Navy and has probably not played again. Diana was considered to be musically talented. Charles is more of a painter.
She played wodden, without any sense for rhythm or emotion. Not saying she had to play like a pianist but to say THIS was magnificent is clearly laughable.
@@SR-iy4gg ikr. She did well for someone put on the spot like that. Whenever I have a recital I freeze up like a stick, and I have time to prepare beforehand too 😆 it’s normal. She did great lol better than playing open strings on a cello with a wretched bow hold like Charles did, but then again he was also put on the spot and cello is very difficult (at least his bow was straight for the most part).
@@folkosire She played sprightly and with feeling, if not technically perfect, likely not having practiced the piece in years. Brava to her for having the bravery spontaneously to assay it in public. This may surprise many who had thought Diana's music taste was just modern pop.
THE most beautiful soul this planet has ever seen! I remember everything! If only the affluent and the “ Influencers “ could take note of this class act❤️
i remember back then,magazines said, that when prince charles was playing and getting the attention, she just out of the blue went and played the piano to get the attention back, which as we could see was a complete lie. this just goes to tell you, don't believe what others say unless you can see it yourself.
Yes, that's what I read, too. Was the article written by Camilla? Charles had his go first, and time to play longer, and Dianna was invited to play next. She wasn't trying to show him up.
She was never the "please pay attention to me". She was a shy lady in a position of always being on stage and she did it always with class. Their will never be anyone like her.
That excerpt is from what is quite probably my most favorite work for piano. How lovely that she chose to study it and to play it in this context. Although I couldn't possibly love her more, this seals the deal. RIP, dear Lady Di - the world will not soon forget you, if ever.
Is there anything she couldn’t do??? How talented and wonderful she was. I wish she was still with us. How her kids and grandkids would have adored her! Thank you for sharing!
@@folkosire How do you know? Do you know how long and how much effort did this take her? No. Then you cannot say that she is not talented just by looking at this video
Quite the composer! I thought it was lovely... and what made it better was the beautiful woman playing it! Very talented, charming, and seemed very down to earth. No wonder why she was so loved.🥰
This proves that Diana was a very intelligent human being. She not only played Rachmaninoff well, but she had the tune memorized and didn't need any sheet music. No wonder Charles was jealous. She was everything he wasn't: beautiful, talented, intelligent, personable, compassionate. She would have made a wonderful queen.
She was GREAT! This is at least UK Grade 8 - have played this myself - and very technically difficult. I had tears in my eyes. How astonishing we did not hear more of her talents!
The Princess really was a lady of many talents which she rarely had an opportunity to display. i love the piece of music she was playing. It was beautiful, haunting and reached your soul which was so much like Diana herself. Lovely 💕
Concert Number 2, wow! Diana was truly a woman of charm and style, she was so well rounded in comparison to the young women we hold as public icons today. Actually, being well rounded was an attribute you could find in women all over the world who were in the public spotlight back then. Today, most unfortunately, not so much....these days all you need is reality tv fame or a large Instagram following to be termed "iconic".
Of all the music, Diana chosed Piano Concerto Number Two by Rachmaninoff. It was already an omen of her sentiments. Princess Diana was really a good woman,but betrayed by her love ones.
Wow! She played that flawlessly. I had heard but now I not only heard but saw her play. HRH Princess Diana was truly a gift to the world. Miss her deeply.
billions of people in the world but there will never be another Diana. and that is sad. Diana helped others, she gave her love to those people in need when in fact she needed it at that time. she was an angel. for me she is. and kind of thinking if she's still alive people will look up to her and do the same things like hers. i would love to talk to people, touch people whenever they need a helping hand.
Playing Rachmaninov from memory is beyond impressive and far from a debut. She was just so damn wonderful 🥺🥺🥺
Playing 1 minute isn’t lol

An extremely difficult piece, the composer of it was one the greatest virtuoso pianists

What a lovely surprise to come across, I don't think she'll ever be forgotten
She had her moments and this was one of them. Well done Diana.
Diana is so👍👍👍 cool
Princess Diana was a loving Person with lot of talents she was graceful.
she was always amazing
Awww Princess Diana is so charming so cute here :D I didn't know she could play the piano so well....miss her so much :(
This proves that Diana was a very intelligent human being. She not only played Rachmaninoff well, but she had the tune memorized and didn't need any sheet music. No wonder Charles was jealous. She was everything he wasn't: beautiful, talented, intelligent, personable, compassionate. She would have made a wonderful queen.
Such a Queen.
She was unabashed wasn't she..........and gave it a good go..........she most probably hadn't played in years......God bless her.
She was such a Lovely Girl, inside and out. Very talented as well.
poor girl. set up to fail from the beginning. in life. we all miss you. rip di.
Oh, she's the cutest!
I Respect her for braving it up here! So Innocent as ever!! Her humbleness will always be so inspiringly remembered. ❤️❤️❤️
She was GREAT! This is at least UK Grade 8 - have played this myself - and very technically difficult. I had tears in my eyes. How astonishing we did not hear more of her talents!
@MONTAGUE no grade 9 lol
what was the name for this piece???
@@Justsomewan I think he said rachmaninoff concerto no2
She was so much for us. I still cry about her when I see stories like this.
She was a natural artist.
Princess Diana played that so beautifully on the piano. What a beautiful woman with such talent. RIP Princess Diana.❤️
The Princess really was a lady of many talents which she rarely had an opportunity to display. i love the piece of music she was playing. It was beautiful, haunting and reached your soul which was so much like Diana herself. Lovely 💕
She was a sweet soul who was misunderstood by her near ones,she played the few notes beautifully.May her soul rest in peace 🙏
Diana had a pure and delicate soul. Angelic if you will.
Diana just never ceases to amaze me 🌷❤️
There will never be another like her. Still feel her loss.
She was incredible. Just stunning.
She outclassed him on every turn
Concert Number 2, wow! Diana was truly a woman of charm and style, she was so well rounded in comparison to the young women we hold as public icons today. Actually, being well rounded was an attribute you could find in women all over the world who were in the public spotlight back then. Today, most unfortunately, not so much....these days all you need is reality tv fame or a large Instagram following to be termed "iconic".
A true teacher and a lovely shy lady 💕
Of all the music, Diana chosed Piano Concerto Number Two by Rachmaninoff. It was already an omen of her sentiments.
Princess Diana was really a good woman,but betrayed by her love ones.
Wow! She played that flawlessly. I had heard but now I not only heard but saw her play. HRH Princess Diana was truly a gift to the world. Miss her deeply.
billions of people in the world but there will never be another Diana. and that is sad. Diana helped others, she gave her love to those people in need when in fact she needed it at that time. she was an angel. for me she is. and kind of thinking if she's still alive people will look up to her and do the same things like hers. i would love to talk to people, touch people whenever they need a helping hand.
Met her once. Wonderful lady.
Wow !
