About Reginald Cyntje
Cyntje’s official biography traces his musical grounding in the U.S. Virgin Islands and identifies Quelbe as an early route into improvisation. It presents trombone, composition, production, and education as connected parts of his Washington-area practice.[1]
The official discography documents eight original leader albums through Mosaic in 2025, alongside selected appearances on other artists’ recordings. His Bandcamp preserves the leader sequence separately, making the scope of each project visible through complete credits.[2][3]
