Melville Jones will be joined by the Vox Humana Chamber Choir as he reads the holiday classic A Child’s Christmas in Wales. It’s the ninth annual performance of the traditional tale in Victoria.

Born and raised in South Wales, narrator Jones brings the tale to life. A Child’s Christmas in Wales was originally written for BBC Radio by poet Dylan Thomas, and recorded in 1952.
