简介

Born in 1988, on the island of Malta, Carlo began his musical education and explored his love for jazz music at the age of eleven. He made a name for himself through the local performances he gave around the island as he slowly began collaborating with renowned local and international musicians. In the year 2012, he was awarded a prestigious scholarship from Berklee School of Music and also had the opportunity to rehearse with and learn from Charles Gatt, founder of the Malta International Jazz Festival and a notable drummer. With his now diverse knowledge and extensive experience as a jazz saxophonist, he performs regularly at a number of local and international gigs and has gained exposure at prestigious venues around Europe, while continuing to collaborate with the who's-who of the Maltese and European jazz scene. In 2012, he pioneered the concept of ‘The Sound Catalogues’, an artistic endeavour aimed at bringing together a series of catalogues inspired by important historical events, figures, artistic movements and eras. He relocated to Paris in 2013 to further his studies - this brought forth a series of lucrative opportunities for him to make connections within the thriving, Parisian music scene, which eventually led to the creation of his first album for The Sound Catalogues Vol.1 - Extraordinary Episodes, featuring the likes of Mátyás Szandai, Sandro Zerafa, Daniele Raimondi, Joe Debono and Lionel Boccara. The group had worked on a collaborative project earlier, which was presented at the Malta Jazz Festival, honed and guided under the eminent guitarist, Sandro Zerafa. The group performed for a second time in July 2013 at the Malta Fringe Festival. Apart from performing at these festivals, Muscat has performed at the prestigious Manoel Theatre in Malta, the renowned Sunset Sunside in Paris and Nardis Jazz Club in Instanbul together with pianist Burak Bedikyan's trio. A seasoned musician, Carlo Muscat is known for his fresh take on jazz music and his unabashed use of improvisation, making the tunes of his compositions markedly his own. His most recent album 'Explorations' is an experimentation on extending the conventions of jazz music to incorporate a series of influences from other genres. He continues to work on subsequent volumes and to study music, exploring uncharted domains for him to develop upon.
