出席了一场专为青少年打造的高科技音乐工作坊。该活动由他创办的“国王信托基金”与科技巨头苹果公司联合举办。
Charles has visited a hi-tech music workshop for young people, in a collaboration between his King's Trust charity and technology firm Apple.
流行乐坛传奇人物埃尔顿·约翰爵士作为特邀嘉宾出席，他坐在国王身旁，两人一同聆听了创作型歌手斯凯·纽曼的简短表演。
Pop royalty, in the form of Sir Elton John, was a special guest at the event, sitting beside the King, as they listened to a short performance from singer-songwriter Skye Newman.
活动在伦敦西南部经过修复的巴特西发电站内举行，地点正是苹果公司总部大楼内的音乐厅。
The event was held at a music hall in Apple's headquarters building, in the restored Battersea Power Station in south west London.
国王所支持的这一项目旨在帮助青少年掌握在创意产业中就业所需的实用技能。
The project being backed by the King is intended to equip young people with practical skills to work in the creative industries.
活动中，国王还结识了苹果音乐部门负责艺人服务、工具开发及社群建设的普罗菲特·吉洛里。这位人士因在指导青少年方面做出的贡献而受到赞誉。
The King was introduced to Prophet Guillory, Apple Music's head of artist services, tools and community, who was praised for his work as a mentor for young people.
当国王对吉洛里的各项工作如数家珍时，后者赞叹道：“天哪，您可真是做了功课啊！”随后，国王又与现场的年轻表演者们见了面。
"Wow, you did your homework," Prophet said, when the King seemed familiar with his efforts. The King was introduced to young performers at the event.
另一位年轻音乐人坦言，目前最大的难题便是筹集资金以实现自己的创意构想。
Another young musician said the problem was getting the money together to launch creative ideas.
对斯凯·纽曼而言，眼前的评审团堪称极其罕见——成员包括查尔斯国王、埃尔顿·约翰爵士、后者的丈夫大卫·弗尼什，以及苹果公司执行董事长蒂姆·库克。
Young performer Skye Newman faced what must have seemed like a very unusual X-Factor style panel - King Charles, Sir Elton, his husband David Furnish and Apple's executive chairman Tim Cook.
此次音乐工作坊属于苹果公司与“国王信托创意实验室”的合作项目，也是王室与这家加州科技巨头之间的最新合作成果。
The music workshop was part of a project between Apple and the King's Trust Creative Labs, and is the latest link-up between the royals and the Californian tech giant.
去年，国王曾在苹果音乐平台上发布了自己最喜爱的17首歌曲组成的播放列表。
Last year, the King revealed a playlist of 17 of his favourite tracks, which was issued on Apple Music.
虽然这些曲目中并未出现埃尔顿·约翰的作品，但这位流行巨星长期以来一直是“国王信托基金”的坚定支持者——该机构的前身正是“王子信托基金”。
The King didn't include Sir Elton John in any of those choices - but the pop star has been a long-time supporter of the King's Trust charity, which was previously known as the Prince's Trust.
如今，“国王信托基金”已成立50周年，其宗旨是为贫困及边缘化群体中的青少年提供发展机会。迄今为止，该机构已帮助了全英国多达130万名年轻人。
Now in its 50th year, the charity was set up to give opportunities to deprived and marginalised young people - and has so far helped 1.3 million people across the UK.
此次与苹果公司的合作体现了就业市场对技能要求的转变——对于希望在音乐及创意产业发展的年轻人而言，掌握最新技术已成为必备条件。巴特西发电站还与英国王室有着渊源：它曾一度为白金汉宫供电。
The tie-up with Apple shows the changing demands for work skills, including using the latest technology for young people wanting to build careers in the music and creative industries. There was also a royal link with Battersea Power Station - as that had once provided the electricity for Buckingham Palace.
在发电站的控制室内，这条供电线路被巧妙地标记为“卡纳比街”，以防有人企图切断白金汉宫的电力供应。
In the power station's control room, the link to the Palace had been discreetly labelled as "Carnaby Street", in case any intruders had ever been tempted to switch off the Palace lights.
