Tenor

Ernest’s love of vocal music, began with private vocal study in Grand Ledge High School, Michigan and continues to this day.
In between he has studied with professionals from the Stuttgart, Frankfurt & Metropolitan Operas.

Ernie’s professional performances include opera & oratorio, art song & musical theatre.
Solo concerts, accompanied by orchestra or piano, with a dash of cabaret & a pratfall or pie in the face,
continue to be the ideal place for Ernie to share his diverse musical interest in song!
