Kaʻai, who was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, was said to have been the first musician to play a complete melody with chords. He was the son of Simon Kaloa Kaʻai, a prominent politician during the Kingdom of Hawaii. CareerA musical director at many Honolulu hotels, Kaʻai hired Johnny Noble in 1917.[2] He was a multi-talented empresario who was also a live performer and teacher, as well as a talent organizer and booking agent, composer and music publisher, and author of instructional manuals. He was the first Hawaiian to copyright his music.[3] At one point Ka'ai had as many as 12 different bands performing on the islands.[4] From 1927 to 1937, Ka'ia toured extensively through Asia introducing his teaching methods and making recordings while in Japan.[4] Kaʻai ran the Kaʻai Ukulele Manufacturing Company,[5] which he sold in 1917 and bought shares in the Aloha Ukulele Manufacturing Co. In 1923, Kaʻai toured[1] the Far East and Australia,[6] moving to Sri Lanka. He planned to open a "Hawaiian Village" in Shanghai, China, but the Second Sino-Japanese War changed his plans and he returned to Hawaii in 1937.[4] By 1941, Kaʻai was living in Miami, Florida where he opened a music store, taught and performed occasionally.[7] The National Guitar Convention in Cleveland, Ohio on August 13–15, 1944,[8] was entertained with a benefit concert by a Miami girl quartet with Kaʻai as the quartet's director. Kaʻai opened the Kaʻai Music Studios, which in 1946 provided a string ensemble[9] for a December 27–28 Orange Bowl Celebration. The Miami News of May 29, 1949,[10] reported Kaʻai would be accompanying vocalist Lucile Keyes for her June 4 performance at a fashion show during Fiesta. June 1950[11] found Kaʻai one among 200 volunteers in rehearsals for the 10 Youth Roundup Goodwill Units. DeathErnest Kaleihoku Kaʻai died in Miami on September 26, 1962.[12] Sheet music and instructional books published by Ernest Kaʻai{{cite book | last =Kaʻai| first =Ernest K |last2= | first2= | title =The Ukulele, A Hawaiian Guitar and How to Play It| publisher=Wall, Nichols| page= |year =1906}}{{cite book | last =Kaʻai| first =Ernest K |last2= | first2= | title =The Ukulele, A Hawaiian Guitar and How to Play It, Revised| publisher=Wall, Nichols| page= |year =1910 | id= ASIN B00088G7M4}}{{cite book | last =Kaʻai| first =Ernest K |last2= | first2= | title =The Ukulele and How It's Played| publisher=Hawaiian News Company Ltd.| page= |year =1916 | id= ASIN B0049X43HA}}{{cite book |last2= | first2= | title =Kaleihoku (hula).
