Album Notes

Ernest Ale is an accomplished classical guitarist and arranger with a uniquely expressive style. While his precision heightens and clarifies each piece, his sensitive, emotionally-charged portrayal enchants and then captivates his listeners.
His love of beautiful music is reflected in his repertoire, which includes baroque, Renaissance and classical compositions by Bach, Scarlatti, Villa Lobos, Robert Johnson, Ponce, Tarrega and Brower as well as ragtime, traditional and original compositions.

Mr. Ale has been playing guitar for 26 years, and has studied music and theory privately and through college courses. He is presently performing in solo concerts, weddings, private parties and cafes. He is available for recitals and music department events,and original music ensembles. Mr. Ale also gives private lessons on the guitar.
