Aled’s Faith and Music

BBC One - Songs of Praise, Aled’s Faith and Music

Pam Rhodes discovers the hymns and sacred music that have shaped the faith of Aled Jones.

Aled Jones joins Pam Rhodes to share the hymns and sacred music he most cherishes, from iconic places of worship in London that have been most significant for his life and faith.

Aled Jones shares his most cherished hymns and sacred music as he and Pam Rhodes embark on a journey across London to visit the iconic places that have been so important for his career and his faith.
 
At St Paul’s Cathedral, Aled reminisces about his early days as a boy chorister in Bangor and his enduring love of the treble-singing voice.
 
He and Pam also enjoy memories of time spent at the Royal Albert Hall and discuss his final recording before his voice broke.

And at St George’s, Hanover Square, Aled tells Pam about his 40-year association with the church, the anthem that means the most to him and his all-time favourite hymn.
 
With music curated by the man himself, from congregational worship to inspiring performances, these are the songs of praise that are most special to Aled.


1. Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah, St. Asaph Cathedral
2. Deep Peace, Aled Jones
3. Dear Lord and Father of Mankind, Royal Albert Hall
4. Make Me a Channel of Your Peace, Christ Church, Oxton, Birkenhead
5. You Raise Me Up, Aled Jones
6. In Christ Alone, Pontio Arts Centre
