Christmas Carols

Description: 

From Bethlehem to Jerusalem, Rome to London, Aled Jones goes in search of the people, places and fascinating stories behind Britain’s best loved carols. Part-road trip in the footsteps of Titchmarsh and Dimbleby, part-musical history lesson in the style of Rock Family Trees, Aled's Christmas Carols is an entertaining and enlightening journey into our musical heritage and the spiritual heart of the country. Inter-cut through the film will be a concert performance by Aled where he sings the carols before exploring the stories behind the lyrics and melody of each. Aled will explore the history behind some of the most sung carols of all time, meeting istorians, musicians, priests and experts who will reveal the stories behind the tunes we all love to sing at Christmas. The carols features include: 'Once in Royal David’s City', 'Away in a Manger', 'O Little Town of Bethlehem', 'O Come All Ye Faithful', 'Silent Night' and more.
