---
Austrian composer and choirmaster, son of the composer and violinist
Josef Malzat (1723-1760). He attended the grammar school in
Kremsmünster, where he was a chorister and possibly also a cellist. He
was subsequently a teacher in the abbeys of Stams in the Tyrol (1778–80)
and Lambach in Upper Austria (1781), a member of the church choir in
Bozen (now Bolzano) (1780–81), household musician in Schwaz (1784) and
finally choirmaster in the university church in Innsbruck (1786–7). His
instrumental works in particular enjoyed wide distribution and were
advertised by Traeg in Vienna as late as 1799. His music has been little
studied but consists of five Masses, a Requiem, an oratorio, a
Singspiel, a cantata, two smaller sacred works, five symphonies, five
concertos (several lost), a sinfonia concertante, 10 quartets, three
string trios, and five sonatas. His brother Ignaz Malzat (1757-1804) was
an oboist and composer active as principal oboe at the court of the
Prince-Archbishop of Passau.
