Standing on the steps of the Victorian concert hall, the blonde beauty radiated pride as she showed off her figure in a pair of skinny jeans and blue heels which elongated her 5ft 5in frame.
The Welsh beauty flashed her pearly whites as her fresh make-up look consisted of pale pink lips and a dusting of blush.
The Royal Academy of Music alumni's take on the national anthem is from her new album Celebration, which will be available to download for free from her website for a limited 24 hours from 21 April.
To cement her satisfaction further, the mother-of-one will also be performing at the birthday celebrations at Windsor Castle in May.

She will go on to perform at her own concert at the Royal Albert Hall in June, dedicated to the royal matriarch, with all proceeds going to The Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Trust. 
Her album will also feature a song called This Mother's Heart - inspired by her new motherly duties to Aaliyah, who was born in September in New York.
The other half of her parental duties fall on husband Andrew Levitas, whom she wed at Hampton Court Palace in 2014, following a whirlwind seven-month romance.

Whilst her husband Andrew is an American, Katherine is determined that her daughter will have a stable accent.
Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show earlier this month, the bubbly vocalist stated: 'I worry about this all the time because I’m very proud of my Welsh accent, I’d love her to have a Welsh accent but I wonder if she’s going to end up somewhere in the middle.
'If she’s going to have one of those transatlantic messed up accents which I don’t want her to have.'
This concern remains true for Katherine herself who's stated she's had to adapt her accent when she originally moved to London because no one could understand her.
Hoping for the sound of the Valleys? Singing sensation, Katherine Jenkins, has revealed that she'd prefer that her six-month old daughter, Aaliyah, develops a Welsh accent, than a 'messed up' transatlantic one
