Profile: | Welsh multi-instrumentalist and contemporary composer (b. 17 February 1944, Penclawdd [Swansea], Wales). Sir Karl Jenkins is Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (CBE), Knight Bachelor, Fellow of the Royal Academy of Music (FRAM), and Honorary Fellow of the Learned Society of Wales (HonFSLW). He performs on baritone/soprano saxophones, oboe, and keyboards. In May 2023, Jenkins commissioned Tros y Garreg ("Crossing the Stone" in English), one of twelve new works for the coronation of Charles III, attending its debut performance at Westminster Abbey's ceremony. His photos from the event briefly circulated in the media, starting with memes joking that Karl was, instead, Meghan Markle (HRH Prince Harry's wife and estranged Duchess of Sussex) in buffoonish disguise, and subsequently numerous debunkings in high-profile press.
