The U.K.’s award-winning Rock Choir is harmonizing for the 25th anniversary of The Diana Award established in memory of Princess Diana by releasing a special new charity song.

On Oct. 31, Rock Choir will drop the official music video for the song, “Make Your Own Kind of Music — Live at Althorp,” with the tune to debut on Nov. 1. Around 350 members of the contemporary choir convened to record their rendition of “Make Your Own Kind of Music,” originally released by Cass Elliot in 1969, in September at Althorp.

Rock Choir’s rendering is raising money and awareness for The Diana Award during the organization’s 25th anniversary year, a statement said. The Diana Award is the only charity established in memory of Princess Diana, who died following a car accident in Paris in 1997 at age 36. The youth-focused organization is uniquely supported by both of her sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, and endeavors to ensure “no young person is left out or left behind.”

Princess Diana ‘Went Where the Pain Was,’ Says The Diana Award CEO — and Now Her Sons Are Doing the Same (Exclusive)

While fans will have to wait a little bit longer to hear the song, Princess Diana’s brother, Charles Spencer, gave a peek into the recording as it happened at Althorp House.

Althorp is the Spencer family’s ancestral home in Northamptonshire, England, and where Princess Diana grew up. Charles, the 9th Earl Spencer, continues to live there today and the late Princess of Wales is buried at Oval Lake.

“What a treat to welcome 350 members of the Rock Choir to ⁦@AlthorpHouse⁩ today — recording a charity single for the wonderful ⁦@DianaAward⁩,” Charles, 60, wrote on X on Sept. 20 below a video of the members of the choir joining their voices. “The Diana Award was set up 25 years ago to continue my sister’s legacy of care and hope among young people all over the world.”

In another message (with video!) about “Take 8” of the Rock Choir singing, Charles added, “Such a lovely sound. I hope the record does really well for ⁦@DianaAward.”

Prince Harry Says the Younger Generation ‘Give Me Hope’ at Event Tied to Mom Princess Diana

A snippet shared to Instagram showed the Rock Choir singing at the memorial to Princess Diana on the island where she is buried, and in front of Althorp House. Dr. Tessy Ojo CBE, CEO of the Diana Award, also appeared in the video and spoke about why the partnership means much.

“[Princess Diana] was a woman that made her own type of music. It’s our 25th anniversary, and that’s 25 years of driving change for young people,” Ojo said in the video shared to Instagram. “It’s wonderful to be partnering with Rock Choir, who have brought their flair of music to our work! Joining us in amplifying the incredible change that can happen when young people are invested in.”

On Sept. 23, Ojo and Prince Harry appeared on the panel, “The Global Mental Health Crisis Among Young People: A Conversation with Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex and Dr Tessy Ojo CBE, CEO of the Diana Award” at the 2024 Concordia Annual Summit in New York City.

Speaking to PEOPLE there, Ojo said that Princess Diana “went where the pain was,” which her sons Prince William and Prince Harry continue to do today.

“I think what you will see is the passion, the selflessness. In some senses, they say, ‘I’m not going to give up,’ ” Ojo tells PEOPLE. “It’s so easy to pause, to stop and to say ‘This is too big. It’s too messy. I’m not going to get involved.’ And that’s the kind of thing we saw with Princess Diana. She went where the pain was. And usually where the pain is — it’s not always comfortable. It’s not easy. And that’s what you see. You see that same value, that principle of ‘We’re going to go where the pain is, however uncomfortable this is.’ “

Of what it means to have the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex back the charity, Ojo adds, “We are so honored, and what a privilege to have both her sons who support this work. And it is their mother’s legacy. They are both immensely committed to driving change. And we know it’s a privilege to have their support, and we will continue to work to make them proud and to keep their mother’s legacy alive.”

“Make Your Own Kind of Music — Live at Althrop” will premiere on platforms everywhere on Friday, Nov. 1.
