He was born in Catarroja (Valencia) on June 11, 1974, into a musical family. His father is the composer Salvador Chuliá. At home, he learned solfège and harmony from his father in a musical environment. He studied at the "José Iturbi" and Joaquín Rodrigo Conservatories in Valencia, earning Honors and Extraordinary Awards in Solfège and Trumpet. He studied trumpet with Vicente López (a student of the renowned trumpeter Maurice André in Paris during the 1970-75 period), who taught him the French school.

In 1994, he completed his higher studies in trumpet with an Excellent grade at the Municipal Conservatory of Barcelona, where his teacher was Espigolet, a student of Raymond Savarich. He began traveling to France to work with Guy Touvron, Thierry Caens, Maurice Benterfa, Bernard Soustrot, Pierre Dutot, Eric Aubier… culminating in a series of encounters, both in Paris, Prèsle en Brie, and San Juan de Luz, with Maurice André himself, who wrote about him: “Ernesto is a true artist who perfectly masters the technique of playing the trumpet. I met him at the Albert Competition, where I was amazed by his performance of Legende by Georges Enesco.”

Between 1996 and 2006, he performed over fifty concerts across Spain, with his main goal being to promote original brass music to the Spanish public. Notable concerts were held in cities such as Mallorca, Madrid, Albacete, Valencia, Barcelona, Menorca, Valladolid, Mahón, León, Alicante, Castellón, Vigo, Córdoba, Ciudad Real, Guadalajara, Zaragoza, Tenerife, Lanzarote, and Gran Canaria, with brass groups such as the Quinteto Mediterráneo, Ensemble de Trompetas "Maurice André", Octeto de Trompetas de Gran Canaria, Metales Catedralicios de Valencia, and Iberbrass, all of which are now defunct.

He has collaborated with orchestras such as the Castilla y León Symphony Orchestra, Balearic Islands Symphony Orchestra, Gran Canaria Philharmonic Orchestra, Madrid Symphony Orchestra, Spanish National Orchestra, Spanish Radio Television Orchestra, Community of Madrid Orchestra, Modus Novus, Turiae Camerata, and Valencia Orchestra…

He is frequently invited to teach courses in Madrid, Badajoz, Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Vigo, Almería, Cádiz, Mallorca, Alicante, Castellón, Valencia, Tallinn (Estonia), Córdoba (Argentina), Cancún (Mexico)... and from 1996 to 2011, he served as a Professor at the "Dionisio Aguado" Municipal Music School in Fuenlabrada, where he trained over twenty trumpet players. Additionally, he is the author of a Method-CD for Trumpet Ensemble, which includes a series of adaptations for trumpet groups, enriched with collective class exercises, and has also published the Vademécum for Trumpet Players.

He has produced two works for Spanish television with educational segments about his instrument. One, in 2010, with the Fuenlabrada's Trumpets group on the program "El club del pizicatto," where he introduced the trumpet to children, and another, in 2011, "Los oficios de la cultura," where he detailed the profession of a trumpeter alongside his student Mario Martos and the renowned master Maurice André.

From 1996 to 2013, he was the solo flugelhorn player of the Municipal Symphonic Band of Madrid, and since 2013, he has been a Trumpet Professor at the "José Iturbi" Municipal Conservatory of Music in Valencia.
