About

Eddie Gales' Ghetto Music was conceived as a full-scale musical production with costumes, acting, and dramatic presentation and is a musical reflection of his life in the ghetto. This is very much a personal portrait; for he wrote, arranged and conducted all of the music. He believes a strong foundation is essential before taking the listeners on a kaleidoscopic journey into the unknown. In Eddie's case, the beautiful melodies are the launching pad for his expeditions.

The core of the music is to be found in the six piece band who provide the drive, momentum and expression. The musicians are only part of the total experience, however, for the 11 voice Noble Gale Singers provide a wailing counterpoint to the musical instruments giving added depth and strength to the music. 

There is a totality to Eddie Gale’s Ghetto Music, a remarkable cohesion and sense of form. With Ghetto Music, Eddie Gale’s creativity has been able to blossom into a world of its own. -John Norris Editor, Coda Magazine
