He said: "RJ and myself are thrilled to see our Titanic Requiem Premiere performed in full at the Central Hall in Westminster.
"I feel great, and I'm particularly excited about performing this brand new song and to have such special guests joining me on stage with the RPO makes this the realisation of a dream."
They will be also be joined on stage by Aled Jones.
