Moka Efti started their journey through musical worlds in 1989. For his composition »The Suite« (1992) Leander Reininghaus needed and found musicians open to stylistic experiments. First came Jochen Vogel, winner of the Prix O'Carolan for composition (1989) and the Trophée Improvisation (1992) at the Recontres Internationales de Harpe Celtique in Dinan in Brittany.
Hannsjörg Scheid is a bass player and composer versatile in a wide variety of styles in which he immerses himself. His musical professionalism provides the underpinning for Moka Efti's expeditions into new realms of sound.
The wildest member of the band is Michael Wack. His large collection of African and South American percussion instruments and his powerful and dynamic way of playing will make you feel like dancing. Ralf Göldner is one of the most sought-after drummers and percussionists in both a studio and concert context.
