Haven’t heard Aled sing that before. What a treat. First saw Stuart Burrows sing in Moriah Chapel, Abercynon in my youth.. My great uncle, Prof David Erasmus accompanied him on the organ. I was so impressed with Stuart at the time. Two great Welsh singers🏴🏴
Had the great pleasure of meeting Stuart Burrows at a Dublin concert some years ago. Wonderful tenor and a lovely pleasant personality. He was so encouraging to young Aled, another great singer.
I agree! It is sacred. The voices such a precious gift from God, and such a precious moment for each of the performers. Aled had a record of Stuart Burrows and had practised singing that part, with the recording. When Burrows asked him if they could sing together, he was all prepared. But how he sang so well, being clasped against the chest of that mighty tenor, is really amazing!
I have the whole documentary of Aled's discovery by the BBC from a letter written by a Miss Edwina Olwig Evans transposed to DVD. It includes the above performance. Aled, afterwards said he had hiryth. (rough translation: "a longing for that which had been")
I'd forgotten how good their voices were at that time. Aled did well to be heard above Burrows voice, especially as he was having his shoulders and upper chest unnecessarily constricted for most of the time.
aled, amazing and gracious performance. thank you aled and stuart for bringing such joy and purity to this world on New Years Eve 2019. God bless you for bringing such joy, wonder and awe at this special time.
Dear fans of Aled Jones, I am searching for "the best" boy soprano ever. Two of my proposals are Anthony Way and Lluis Travesset (Escolania de Montserrat). Add to this: Ferdinand Silhanek - the double of "Tony" in "Almost Angels" - and Ferdinand Jankowitsch. Both were members of the Vienna Boys´ Choir.
By the way: Verry good boy soloists were also the brothers Terry and Lorin Wey (VBC) and is the very current (!) Aksel Rykkvin from Norway !!! Let me also recommend the documentaries "Silk Road" and "L´Or des Anges"...:))) The last one is a must for fans of boys choirs !
The Great Aled Jones, definitely my favorite boy soprano of all the time.
Until about 2 months ago I would have said the same. I then heard Malakai Bayoh. Now I would say Aled is one of my two favourite boy sopranos.

Stuart has a glorious tenor voice
Classical beauty is a joy forever. Well done !

Aled Jones has done well over the years his singing is great .all the programmes he has done over the years .and classical music .
How beautiful was his treble voice before he grew up. I didn't know him then.
I recall him singing treble on TV before his voice broke; being the same age, we are contemporaries. He is only six months younger than me!
Bellisimo
Simply astounding!
Breathtaking. Thank you.
It's one of my favorites!
Never have I heard such perfection. I would think the members of the orchestra will remember forever playing their part in it.
Aled sempre cantando com muita segurança!
The conductor is Robin Stapleton who was the resident conductor for all of the Stuart Burrows Sings programmes.
Cute! What a boy! ^.^
Lindo demais!❤❤❤❤
Glad you liked it..
It's the fact that his trousers are very high-waisted. We are used to them being worn low around the hips.
goosebumps!
Thanks for the info..
Wonderful performance. It's also just struck me that Aled seems to have very long arms and legs in comparison with the rest of his body!
That is often so when youth (teenager) are growing up but not the rule. Then first the extremities are growing.

You’ve heard the saying….”All arms & Legs”. Now you know why.
Waiata mai, korua, ka wane ke !!

Add Ernest Lough ,whose 1927 recording of "Hear my prayer" was EMI's first million discs seller
Let me add here the following link. There we are able to find more information about well known boy soloists: www.boysoloist.com/index.asp
By the way: Verry good boy soloists were also the brothers Terry and Lorin Wey (VBC) and is the very current (!) Aksel Rykkvin from Norway !!!

Timothy Barber . Walking in the Air
Phillip, in the vienna Boys Choir, Askel Rykvyn, Cai Thomas Regis Mengus, Jean Baptiste Maunier, of course lots of boys from Libera
He was Lucky. My voice broke when I was 13 and a half. He was 16 when his changed....
Nice
Unfortunately I dont not have the credits from this programme, so I am not to sure who the conductor was, but if I find out, I will let you know.
It's Robin Stapleton - scroll up and see Simon Nicholls' comment above.
Alej Jones chamou Malakai bayoh ❤
29.12.2020 Аледу Джонсу исполнилось 50 лет 💐💐💐🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🎄♥️💜❤👏🙏
I am six months older than Aled and remember him as a treble. I was fifteen here (now aged 52). He is 52 in December - I reached that figure in June!
