Aled Jones has had an extraordinary career over the past four decades. He has sung for the Pope and the Royal Family, has received an MBE, released over 40 albums, with over 10 million album sales and counting, and has over 40 silver, gold, and platinum discs.
After beginning his career at the age of 12, Aled became one of the world’s most successful boy sopranos, releasing 12 hit albums in four years with his defining moment being the release of Walking in the Air, the hit song from the animated film The Snowman. Aled is also the first classical artist to have two albums in the Top 5 of the Official Album Chart.
Aled has since forged an extensive career as a TV and radio presenter, with his own shows across BBC Radio 2 and 3, and BBC Radio Wales. He hosts the most-listened-to show on Sunday on Classic FM and has been a firm favourite to present BBC1 Songs Of Praise for over 20 years.
