It ended with a rendition of Carole King's "So Far Away," one of Amy's favorite songs.
Close family and friends - including Amy's recent boyfriend, Reg Traviss - moved on to Golders Green Crematorium, where Amy was to follow a non-Jewish tradition and be cremated.
The family will take two days sitting shiva, a Jewish traditional period of mourning.
MTV's tribute to Amy
TV critic Ellen Gray reports that MTV will change its scheduled programming at 6:30 tonight and mark the passing of Amy Winehouse by rerunning her performances from an appearance on the network four years ago.
Recorded for the show "45th at Night," "this intimate performance features an introspective Winehouse standing on the verge of superstardom in a rare U.S. television appearance," according to MTV.
Among the songs: "Back to Black," "Me & Mr. Jones," "You Know I'm No Good" and, of course, "Rehab."

Ranking the '27 Club'
A number of Daily News writers and editors tried to put Amy's death in perspective regarding other members of the ill-fated "27 Club."
Tattle argued over the placement of legendary Blues pioneer Robert Johnson (1911-1938), the so-called father of the club, but when we were overruled, we decided on a rock-era-only list.
1 Jimi Hendrix (Nov. 27, 1942-Sept. 18, 1970). Still considered the greatest electric guitarist, he influenced rock, pop, blues, jazz, hip-hop and fashion.
2 Kurt Cobain (Feb. 20, 1967-April 5, 1994 est.). Founder and leader of the grunge-rock movement with Nirvana and a music icon for "Generation X."
