Хааны 78 насны төрсөн өдөрт зориулсан нэг цагийн тусгай дугаар Бямба гарагт Apple Music 1-ээр цацагдана.
Нууцаар бичсэн тусгай дугаарыг Бямба гарагийн өглөөний 09:00 цагт хүргэх бөгөөд Чарльз, сэр Элтон Жон нар өнгөрсөн сард Лондонгийн Баттерсиагийн цахилгаан станц дахь Apple Music Studios-д ярилцжээ. The King’s Trust буяны байгууллагын 50 жилийн ойд зориулсан нэвтрүүлэгт хөгжмийн тусламжтайгаар тус байгууллагын үйл ажиллагааг онцолж, залуу уран бүтээлчдийг дэмжихийн ач холбогдлыг хөндөнө.
Тэд сүүлийн таван арван жилд тус байгууллагыг дэмжсэн уран бүтээлчдийн тоглолтууд, мөн залуудаа тусламж авч байсан хөгжимчдийн тухай дурсжээ. Тэдний дунд гараагаа Rocket Baby Dolls нэрээр эхэлж байхдаа тоног төхөөрөмж худалдан авахад тэтгэлэг авч байсан Мьюз хамтлаг багтсан байна.
Нэвтрүүлэгт Рэйгийн “Joy”, Скай Ньюманы “Hairdresser” болон Мьюзийн “Feeling Good” дууны хувилбар багтсаныг мэдээлсэн ч сонгосон бүтээлүүдийн бүрэн жагсаалтыг цацагдах хүртэл нууцална. Чарльз хөгжмийн бүтээлүүдээ танилцуулах саналыг хүлээн авах боломжгүй зүйл байгаагүй хэмээн тайлбарлаж, сэр Элтон Жон тус байгууллагын олон жилийн ажлын талаар ярилцлагаас их зүйл мэдэж авснаа хэлжээ.
Энэ нь Чарльзын Apple Music-тэй хамтарсан хоёр дахь төсөл бөгөөд өнгөрсөн жил тэрээр өөрийн дуртай 17 дууг танилцуулсан “King’s Music Room” нэвтрүүлэгт оролцож байв. “Rocket Hour”-ын дугаарыг Бямба гарагт 17:00, 22:00 цагт, Ням гарагт 02:00, 06:00 цагт Apple Music 1-ээр дахин үнэгүй сонсох боломжтой бөгөөд дараа нь платформоос сонсож, татаж авна.

The King will mark his 78th birthday on Saturday with an hour-long special episode of Sir Elton John’s Apple Radio show Rocket Hour.
The programme, recorded by the pair in secret, will premiere at 9am that day on Apple Music 1.
Charles and Sir Elton sat down together last month at the Apple Music Studios in Battersea Power Station in south London.
The conversation was held to highlight the key role of music in the work of the monarch’s charity The King’s Trust, which is celebrating its 50th year.

The King described it as “an opportunity too good to resist”, while Sir Elton admitted afterwards: “I learnt a lot from speaking to His Majesty.”
Charles also thanked Sir Elton for adding “a little Rocket Power to the proceedings”.
In a trailer, the King and Sir Elton are shown chuckling together as they chat during the recording.
Sir Elton said in a voiceover: “Hi, I’m Elton John. Welcome to my Rocket Hour. This week, my special guest, and I really mean special guest. I’m so excited to hear what he’s got to say about music, about The King’s Trust and memories that we both share.”

The pair shared memories of performances by some of music’s biggest stars in support of the trust over the last five decades – from Wembley Arena rock galas of the 1980s through to pop concerts in Hyde Park and sold-out charity shows at the Royal Albert Hall.
The episode also highlighted some of those who received help from the trust in their early days, including Muse, who were given a grant from the then-Prince’s Trust to purchase PA equipment when they were starting out as a band under the name Rocket Baby Dolls.

Sir Elton told the King: “I never knew that some of these musicians were involved in the trust. It’s great news to me… and it reinforces for me all the great work that you’ve done all these 50 years, because I had no idea. So bravo.”
The King said it was “wonderful” to see the difference the trust’s programmes can make, adding: “Well really, what I was trying to do was invest in the future, but particularly investing in talent.”
Sir Elton said: “That’s the greatest thing you can do. Young people are our future, and you’re doing a wonderful job.”

The disc-jockey duo were pictured together in the studio, standing side by side, with Sir Elton wearing his trademark colourful thick-rimmed glasses – this time in green.
The episode is the first to be recorded in the new Apple Radio studios.
Charles and Sir Elton took part in it in October when they both visited Battersea Power Station for the launch of the Apple x King’s Trust Creative Labs, which aims to help young people explore potential careers in creative industries.
The full list of their chosen tracks is being kept secret until the programme airs, but it was revealed that Raye’s “Joy”, Skye Newman’s “Hairdresser” and Muse’s rendition of “Feeling Good” were among them.
In the episode, the King said: “Music has always been at the heart of The Prince’s, and now The King’s Trust.
“So when I was asked whether I would like to showcase a selection of music from among the many talented performers who have so generously supported us over the years, together with some of the newer artists the trust has helped to launch, it was an opportunity too good to resist.”
Announcing news of the episode, a Buckingham Palace spokesperson said: “You could say this new opportunity therefore presented a slight challenge – how to make a similar impact and avoid what some might call ‘the difficult second album’.”
They added: “The answer was to find a world class musical collaborator.
“This year, therefore, I’m pleased to announce that the King is returning to Apple Music alongside, drum roll please… The Rocket Man himself, Sir Elton John.”
They described it as “a show that is something of a shared musical journey” and said the King and Sir Elton’s playlist “spans a range of decades and genres, from some meaningful personal favourites and golden oldies, to this year’s new releases”.
“From Tina Turner and Rod Stewart to Calvin Harris and this year’s Mercury Prize winner Raye, we hope there is something there for everyone, whatever their age or musical taste,” the spokesperson said.
The venture is Charles’s second project with Apple Music, after he took part in the King’s Music Room online radio show last year when he was asked to showcase 17 of his favourite songs.
Sir Elton has long been a supporter of The King’s Trust, and performed at some of its rock galas at Wembley in the 1980s and donated a pair of his rose-tinted spectacles to raise money as part of its 50th anniversary auction.
The King’s Trust, then known as The Prince’s Trust, was set up by Charles in 1976 to help disadvantaged young people overcome challenging circumstances, get into employment or launch their own businesses.
Charles is celebrating his birthday just over a week after he returned from a busy tour to the Caribbean.
There will be additional opportunities to hear the episode for free on Apple Music 1 on Saturday at 5pm and 10pm, and on Sunday at 2am and 6am, and on both Apple Music 1 and Apple Music Hits at 10am and 2pm on Sunday.
It will then be available to listen to or download from the Apple Music platform.
