The King was described as being “jolly” and “in great spirits” by guests as he played a recorder made out of a carrot at a music reception at Windsor Castle. Charles returned to official public duties after temporary side effects from cancer treatment forced him to cancel a string of engagements at the end of last week. The King welcomed musicians to Windsor Castle on Thursday for a reception celebrating community music, having returned to state business on Monday after a restful weekend. Report by Covellm.

00:00Back in the day, I always wanted to take one of these.
00:03I just wanted to keep up with the technological advancements.
00:06And it's a bit traditional, I think,
00:08because it's one of the more simple pieces.
00:10It's kind of like, well, this one's 18 years old,
00:13and that's the same.
00:14Yeah.
00:15And this is actually 18 years old.
00:17I think this one's 18 years old.
00:21Yes.
00:22Yes, thank you.
00:23Yes, I have one.
00:24You're a star.
00:2832, I think.
00:30I hear you've got a very good TV and TVC game.
00:32Yes, that's been around for a while.
00:34The latest one's called Upright.
00:36It's inspired by Greta Thunberg.
00:42Hi, Joe, nice to meet you.
00:44Do you work with Greta Thunberg?
00:46Yes.
00:47Can I move the chair from the stand?
00:51It was almost all a joke.
00:55It was based on a story, but it was a lot of fun.
00:59Anyway, are you enjoying that?
01:00I love it.
01:01I'm so intrigued by all the different groups which get together.
01:05Your one is remarkable.
01:07Oh, thank you.
01:09I'm so glad.
01:10These two all look so happy.
01:12We're loving it.
01:13That's what we love.
01:14I love all that CD music.
01:16Yes.
01:19Absolutely.
01:23We met in about three or two.
01:25Probably nine years ago.
01:29That's what I'm talking about.
01:41It was fantastic.
01:43It really was.
01:44Thank you so much.
01:45You were completely part of that.
01:47We are one.
01:50It's a hell of an instrument.
01:52Thank you, ladies.
01:53Beautiful.
01:54I was playing tenor from the beginning.
01:57I have you on several.
01:58You must have.
02:01You choose according to your mood.
02:07Thank you for that.
02:08I tried very hard to cover the entire comedy.
02:10Absolutely.
02:11No, it's brilliant.
02:12You did fantastic jobs.
02:13Well done.
02:14But I'm intrigued how many people listened to you.
02:21Great recommendation.
02:22I don't think I'm a very good teacher.
02:24No, I think you did just fine.
02:26I remember music.
02:27Very true.
02:29Do you like to?
02:30I do.
02:37Can I say it right now, sir?
02:39Yes, two seconds.
02:42So, is it...
02:47I've been involved for some time.
02:49Have we gone for 35 years now?
02:50Yeah, about that.
02:52It's over 200.
02:54It's on the balcony.
02:56Sir?
02:57Here?
02:58Yes, here.
03:26He's proud, isn't he?
03:33So, how often have you gone to the French and found some of these jokes?
03:37Sir?
03:38How often have you gone to your French and found some of these techniques?
03:42I have a good feeling about this.
03:52No, I was just pretending.
03:53I was just for show.
03:54This is for show.
03:55Yes, yes, yes.
03:59Yes.
04:04It's exactly like a table.
04:06It's just well done with my legs.
04:26It's good.
04:31It's good.
04:35It's good.
04:36It's good.
05:06It's good.
05:36Thank you so much.
05:37Fantastic.
05:38I'm so thrilled to hear that.
05:39Oh, yeah?
05:40For God's sake, I can't tell you.
05:42Because are you one of the last remaining reporters here?
05:46Yes, I am.
05:47Did you turn them in when they were here?
05:49I did in one of them, yes.
05:50You made these?
05:51That's why they're good.
05:53It's astonishing.
05:55It's astonishing that you've actually given these to us.
05:57Yeah.
05:58Well, I just choose it like a treat.
06:01Basically.
06:02Except it's horrible.
06:04They both have weird sleeves going down.
06:09Do you need a particular type of wood?
06:13We usually use very old boxwood.
06:15Boxwood.
06:16Yes.
06:30I've got an idea.
06:31Really?
06:33Would you wear it?
06:35Yeah, go on.
06:38Do you want to play with us?
06:47I've got no idea.
06:48We're going to have to tell her.
07:02Oh, my God.
07:17You did it!
07:18Thank you very much.
07:19A bit of tea?
07:20That's for you.
07:21No, it's all yours.
07:22It's specially made.
07:23It's like it is.
07:24We stayed up all night.
07:27This was a potato with a carrot mouth.
07:30Everything done from here, like a bugle.
07:49And have you been singing with it for a long time?
07:52Yes, three years.
07:53Three years.
07:54Fantastic.
07:56We're all surviving here.
08:01It's so wonderful to see your traditional clothes.
08:04Yeah, very old somehow.
08:05Hope you enjoyed it.
08:21Thank you so much.
08:22Thank you for your support.
