Peter Auty compositions sheet music and chords

Peter Robert Auty (born 1969) is an English operatic tenor who has worked with most of the major opera companies in Britain and a number of companies in continental Europe. Auty is a former choirboy who sang at St Paul's Cathedral. At the age of 13, he sang "Walking in the Air", the theme song to the 1982 animated film The Snowman. Some people thought Aled Jones was the original singer, but his version was a cover of the song released as a single in 1985. Auty was approached to sing the 1985 version, but his voice had broken, and Aled Jones was chosen. Auty's version, which was recorded especially for The Snowman, had been released as a single two years earlier.
