Austrian composer and oboist. Son of Josef Malzat (1723-1760), he
studied with his father. In 1774 he obtained a position as oboist in the
court orchestra in Salzburg, becoming a student of Johann Michael
Haydn. In 1778 he toured central Europe before settling in Bolzano, but
in 1788 he obtained the post of principal oboe at the court of the
Prince-Archbishop of Passau. As a composer, his extant works include
concertos for cello, oboe, two oboes, and oboe and bassoon. He also left
a sextet, a quintet, a cassation and three wind partitas. His music
reflects the style of his teacher, but it has been little studied. His
brother Johann Michael Malzat (1749-1787) was a cellist and composer.
