Close your eyes and open your ears. What you hear is Konstantin Reinfeld’s harmonica playing on new songs, mostly, all of which he at least co-wrote. Without seeing this young talent, one assumes he is a highly-trained Jazz-veteran. His chromatic playing on a diatonic Hohner harmonica, such as the “Marine Band Crossover” or the “Golden Melody”, sounds technically and emotionally mature – certainly far beyond his 16 years of age.
If you consider that transposing music into other keys on these instruments needs a certain technical playing ability, which most people are not able to learn in their entire lifetime, it becomes even more exciting. To find out that Konstantin has only been playing the instrument for a few years, makes it absolutely breath-taking.
Fascinated by the harmonica ever since witnessing a harmonica-player winning an international talent-show on TV, Konstantin got his first instrument as a Christmas present at the age of 13. Building on the musical experience he had playing piano and clarinet, he started to teach himself the harmonica, and developed his skills as fast as thoroughly. Konstantin, a good student on his way to graduating high school in his hometown of Kempen, is less a geek, but an enthusiastic talent: he spends as much time with friends and family, as with the autodidactic studies of his musical passion.
Being a member of the „generation internet”, Konstantin soon found his way to the international stars of the global harmonica scene – via play-alongs. He keeps taking online lessons from role models such as Carlos del Junco (Canada), Dennis Gruenling (USA), Mariano Massolo (Argentina) or Ben Bouman (Netherlands). His love of Jazz led him to study at the “Howard Levy Harmonica School” and with Howard Levy himself.
With his first live appearance at “Club Voltaire” during the Frankfurt Music Fair in 2010, Konstantin Reinfeld created a huge impact and left an equally gigantic impression. At the invitation of internationally renowned Blues harmonica player Steve Baker, he joined the “Harmonica Masters Workshops 2010” in Trossingen and was discovered by Hohner – who made the “German-Wunderkind” a member of their endorser program.
Ever since discovering his love for playing live and in front of an audience, Konstantin has performed as many guest appearances as he could, for example with the band “BluesCulture” and its members Steve Baker, Abi Wallenstein and Martin Röttger, with the “RootsDuo”, consisting of Joe Filisko and Eric Noden, and also locally in the Rhine area, where his own compositions, too, were well received and celebrated by the audience.
During the production of his Hohner endorser-film, Konstantin met the team of the Soulkitchen GmbH, who made sure that his debut, the soon to be classic Jazz album you are now holding in your hands, is released globally under the brand “Hohner Masters Of The Harmonica”.
Close your eyes, open your ears – and enjoy!
