Samuel Reinhard is a NYC-based Swiss composer. Guided by minimalist and aleatoric tenets, Reinhard's work emphasizes repetition and extended duration. His compositions are not unlike tapestries, built from shifting horizontal threads between which emerge unexpected resonances as they iterate and layer. From a distance unassuming and all but eventless, Reinhard’s work is nonetheless driven by constant, subtle inner change.
 
In his compositional practice he engages with sonic matter and processes like instrumentation and recording on a granular level, while interrogating and exploring the intricacies of perception and the act of listening itself.
 
In addition to his musical output, Reinhard maintains a practice of interdisciplinary collaborations and commissions. He earned his MA in Contemporary Arts Practice (Music & Media Arts) from Bern University of the Arts, and has been awarded grants and artist residencies from the Swiss Arts Council, the Music Commission of the City of Bern, the Department of Culture of the Canton of Bern, Montello Foundation and others.
