Every so often I stumble upon a YouTube gem that I simply can not walk away from. I have listened to this upwards of 20 times in the last week and I am still looking for it every time I log in. The wonders of YouTube- allowing "old" things to be rediscovered anew. It's a beautiful piece of heaven in this performance.

@HerbicidalManiac Glad you like it ;o) I dont know if you know, but Aled went on to have a very successful singing career as an adult, if you check out the videos on my channel you should find lots of his adult stuff on there.. If you prefer his treble voice, then please take a look at another of my channels AledTreble, that is full of his younger material.

I have tears in my eyes listening to him.... this is one of my favorites, from this opera, and it touches me to see how clearly he actually feels the power of this beautiful composition. Thank you for posting this. I will be checking some of his other stuff now.

@brightsorcerer I have another channel called AledTreble, please take a look at it, you will find lots of videos of Aled when he was a treble.. All the best.

@Nevizations Check out the other adult Aled Jones videos on this channel, and you will see how he is doing now.

Little Sir, You have a wonderful sense of musical style. You remind me of the great singers of the past. Good luck to you.

Have a happy life!!!

@yesitsme1149 Your comments really make me smile! As a child, I always wanted to sing the solo in Once in Royal David's City. It didn't happen until I was adult! One of my sons did it at 7, and the other one at 12. None of us was perfect, but the "oldies" loved it just the same!

@18aaronjames Prompted by your message, I just looked him up on Wikipedia. He was born in 1970, which makes him several years older than I thought he was!

@MandyJMaddison no no he is 40 right now that o holy night was a while back that was recently posted

@MandyJMaddison misunderstanding because my english is poor. I know his current age but I wonder how was he when he was singing Ombra at this clip. It is great personality nad I know that he support idea of boy soprano singing.

[MandyJMaddison]

@2010wieliczka He is in his mid thirties. If you search you will find him. He grew into a lovely man who hosts a program of hymn singing called Songs of Praise. His mature voice is pleasant but no longer magnificent. There is a heartbreaking video clip of the adult Aled singing "O Holy Night" with his younger self.

i used to organised official his fan club in japan back in 1990s, lots of girls and a few boys really liked him . he was a huge there. there still are lots of adimire of his in japan so hopefully he willn come back to perfomance in front of his fans soon. he loved kfc when i met his while he was playing tennis in tokyo.

With a lot more training and maturation he would have made a fine castrato in the old days.
