About Al Di Meola

A bona fide guitar hero and prolific composer, Al Di Meola has amassed over 20 albums as a band leader while collaborating on a dozen or so others. A pioneer of blending world music and jazz going back to early Latin-tinged fusion outings released in the 1970s, he continues to explore the rich influence of flamenco, tango, Middle Eastern, Brazilian, and African music.

Al Di Meola's ongoing fascination with complex rhythmic syncopation combined with provocative lyrical melodies and sophisticated harmony has been at the heart of his music throughout a celebrated career that has spanned four decades and earned him critical accolades, three gold albums, and more than six million in record sales worldwide.
