Oscars producers Lynette Howell and Stephanie Allain said in a statement: “We’re excited to have an incredible group of nominees and performers who will deliver one-of-a-kind music moments you will only see on the Oscars.”

The awards ceremony will also feature a performance by US artist Questlove, as well as a guest-conducted segment by Eimear Noone.

Noone will become the first female orchestral conductor to perform during an Oscars television broadcast.

Sir Elton and Taupin have already picked up a Golden Globes award for their song.

Taron Egerton, who played the role of Sir Elton in Rocketman, was also named best actor in a comedy/musical for his depiction of the singer.

However he missed out on a nomination for the Oscars for his role in the film.

The Oscars will be held on February 9 in Hollywood.
