Laura's Faith and Music
Singer Laura Wright shares her favourite hymns and worship songs with Pam Rhodes and reflects on how they have shaped her life and faith.
Laura Wright has become one of the nation’s favourite sopranos over her 20-year career, from winning ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Chorister of the Year as a teenager to singing in stadiums around the world. This week, in her home county of Suffolk, she reflects with Pam Rhodes on the hymns, worship songs and choral classics that have shaped her life and faith.
Pam joins Laura and her family on the beautiful Aldeburgh Beach to look back at the difficult times of Laura’s childhood illness and the music that brought the family closer to God. And at her church and her old school in Framlingham, Laura reflects on the hymns that mean the most to her.
