King Bhumibol of Thailand is an accomplished jazz musician and plays the saxophone.

Exactly. He is an accomplished jazz musician & composer with his own band and used to play with the Greats of Jazz, such as Goodman or Hampton. It's more than a hobby so many people call him the "Jazz King"

The princesses Amalia and Alexia of the Netherlands take violin lessons and Pieter van Vollenhoven plays the piano. He used to sing in a band as well.

I don't know more Dutch royals playing a musical instrument, but I do know Queen Beatrix and her sisters Margriet and Christina enjoy singing. Christina is a classically trained singer and she performed at several royal events. In the 80's, Beatrix and Margriet actually recorded a song together with their husbands.

Has any royal ever played in an orchestra, a rock band or performed at a charity concert? Or what about making an album. Has any royalty ever won an music award for their performances or music? What about singing their national athem at a sporting event or other event?
