Hi everyone,
first of all a happy new year to all of you!
Last year's Hohner World Harmonica Festival was my first one and I had an amazing time in Trossingen. Here is a video of my performance @ the Masters of the Harmonica Gala Concert with Mr. Quilento feat. Tollak on keys!!!
Best, Konstantin ---------- www.konstantinreinfeld.com

Nice, Konstantin! And great band support.
(I missed this part of your set at WHF - always too much to do at festivals - so I'm glad for the opportunity to catch up, because what I did hear live I enjoyed vey much!) ---------- Winslow

Smooth! I haven't heard anyone who can move through those types of runs using overblows as smoothly as Konstantin. Nice job!

Wow, I agree with Frank and Todd. Amazing performance. ---------- Wisdom does not always come with old age. Sometimes old age arrives alone.

Wonderful. Sweet and so tasty. I continue being amazed. What kind of custom harp are you playing? All details, please!

Konstantin: You're one of the great ones. Jazzmen always say that the ability to play a ballad is what shows the true mark of a player. There's nowhere to hide in that sort of thing. Same here. You haven't just surmounted technical challenges that all of us can instantly appreciate, but you've done so in a way that doesn't ever play showoff; instead, your inner musicality--your lyricism, your singing gift, in melodic terms--shines through. I can only imagine how many thousands of hours of solitary practice it took to get where you are. Bravo!

Thanks, really appreciate it! I either play Hohner Golden Melodies that I customize by myself or custom Marine Bands with Special 20 cover plates from Thomas Hanke @ www.hankeharmonicas.com Hope this helps :) Best, Konstantin ---------- www.konstantinreinfeld.com

Dein spielen gefallt mir. (Darf ich "du" zu dir sagen?)
First of all, you appear to be a musician. Secondly, you play the harmonica rather than letting it play you.
This is breaking through that "harmonicky" sound so many have when playing diatonic. ---------- The Iceman
