Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Aled is Aled Jones' first CD for 16 years. It's one thing to make a comeback; it's something else to re-emerge with a completely new voice. After a high-profile career as a young descant, including the hit single "Walking in the Air", Jones left the limelight. His time out included a stint at the Royal Academy of Music developing his baritone voice which is now heard on this his first disc as an adult.

The strengths of Jones' treble, notably clarity of words and musical expression, have been preserved in his adult singing voice. The 14 tracks on Aled include folk songs as well as hymns and other religious pieces, a reflection of his "day job" as a Songs of Praise presenter. On several numbers, Jones teams up with Robert Prizeman and his boys choir Libera. This is an inspired pairing and produces some of the disc's highlights, including the spine-tingling "Vespera". It is good to hear Jones sing in his native Welsh, but the finest moment is saved until last--Adolphe Adam's popular modern-day carol "O Holy Night" where the two Aleds, young and old, duet. --Rebecca Agnew

CD Description
The boy soprano, famous for his rendition of 'Walking In The Air' from Raymond Briggs' The Snowman, returns after a time away from the music industry. The album comprises of a mixof popular classical songs which help showcase his unique vocal talents. 'Aled' also features the song 'O Holy Night', a duet with himself when he was still a young boy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Surprising Aled, 23 Dec 2003
I cannot recommend this CD highly enough - I purchased the cd after hearing the sample 'o holy night' featuring the young Aled in duet with himself. My search was for a 'male choir' vocal rendition of this classic hymn,(as featured on the t.v. programme 'The West Wing').
However, having been extremely dissapointed with the Pavarotti version of 'o holy night', and as I am not the greatest fan of popular Christmas Carols, I purchased the Aled Jones version very much a 'last resort'.
I remembered Aled singing 'walking in the air' and expected to be dissapointed with the 'older Aled' matured voice, but was delighted to discover a wondeful singer, and a performer of true talent and emotion.
I cannot remember a previous occassion when I brought a CD for a particular track to discover all the songs on the entire CD to be equally enjoyable. This CD and singer far exceeded my albeit limited expectation! I was totally surprised at the depth and quality of Aled's voice, which more than does justice to the 'classical favourites' often covered by the more famous tennor voices!
This cd will leave you wanting more, especially remarkable as providing the listener with both a feeling of tranquility whilst still 'sending shivers to the spine'. Although not even vauguely a fan of Aled Jones in the past, after hearing him sing on this 'Aled' CD,I most certainly am now!

5.0 out of 5 stars Aled's Return, 16 Oct 2002
By A Customer
Those who are old enough to remember the stunning voice of Aled as a boy treble will be thrilled by this record. The magic that captivated the nation's heart 15 years ago is still there. The voice still has that clear and precise technique now linked to a stromg baritone.
The choice of music on this album will appeal equally to those who recall Aled's records from the 80's and a more recent generation who have come to know him as a most popular presenter - and performer - through BBC TV's "Songs of Praise".
The one new song on this album -"I Believe" - is magnificent. The final track - "O Holy Night" - where the mature Aled sings in duet with the young Aled the treble must be a stromg candiate for the Christmas No 1 spot this year.
Aled the treble left at the top of the charts. I think Aled the baritone has returned heading back in the same direction.
This album desreves six stars!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Aled Jones - Now the Man, 3 Nov 2002
By A Customer
I have just purchased 2 Aled Jones CD's from Amazon, and how I have enjoyed listening to both. His voice has a clarity and tone that is pure delight to listen to. You can hear every word and understand what he is singing about. The hair on your neck seems to tingle as times. On this CD he sings religious songs, many that we all know and love. All are beautifully sung and pure delight to listen to but his duet with himself as a youngster has to be one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever produced.

Now Aled is a man his voice is as wonderful as ever, his range of notes fantastic. I look forward to purchasing more CD's in the future. Thanks Aled
