Retrieved online via encyclopedia.com 12 June 2014.〕 is an American classical harmonica player. Described by the music critic for the ''Los Angeles Times'', as "the Paganini of the harmonica",〔Swed, Mark (January 12, 1998), ("A Big-Time Opener for Little Festival" ). ''Los Angeles Times''.

==Early life and education==
Bonfiglio was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the son an orthopedic surgeon, and raised in Iowa City, Iowa. He first began playing the diatonic harmonica when he was thirteen, and although he played in local blues bands as a teenager, had no plans to become a professional musician. He enrolled in the University of Arizona to study chemistry, but at the same time became interested in the possibilities of the chromatic harmonica. After travelling to Trossingen, Germany in the 1970s where he attended a seminar by the master harmonica player, Cham-Ber Huang, he decided on a musical career. He enrolled in Mannes College of Music in New York City, studying composition. Mannes, like the other major music conservatories in the United States at the time, did not offer majors in the harmonica. However, Bonfiglio also studied the classical harmonica with Cham-Ber Huang for five years and was coached privately by Andrew Loyla, the Principal Flautist with the New York City Ballet orchestra for over ten years. During this time he added all the existing classical music composed for the harmonica to his repertoire.〔Winzenried, Rebecca (2001). ("Robert Bonfiglio: Hummin'" ). ''The Free-Reed Journal''. Reprinted from ''Symphony'', the magazine of the American Symphony Orchestra League (Nov.-Dec. 2001). Retrieved 12 June 2014.〕 After receiving his Bachelor of Music from Mannes, Bonfiglio went to post-graduate study at the Manhattan School of Music. It was his composition teacher there, Charles Wuorinen, who told him he could do more with the classical harmonica than with composition because it was such a special niche.〔 He won the first Milhaud Scholarship to study composition at the Aspen Music Festival with Aaron Copland.
