Alan Rinehart has made many contributions to the guitar world as a performer, teacher, and music editor. Completing studies at Western Michigan University and a Professional Music Training Diploma from Vancouver Community College, he studied lute repertoire and technique in London, England at the Early Music Centre with Anthony Rooley, Jakob Lindberg, and Emma Kirkby. His study of historical performance practices led to the ability to play the lute with a softer 'no nail' sound and the guitar with a standard concert guitar technique.

"He played with precision, but more importantly with a sense of style and a genuine musical presence." were the words of Chicago Symphony Orchestra's President, Henry Fogel, after hearing Gonzalo Andrés performing in Northbrook, Illinois.
