Gustavo C. M. has bowed to tradition and written this in the third person. He notes that this makes for some tormented wording but what the hell, the wording probably deserves it. Gustavo is an accomplished reeds player, usually to be found on clarinet and bass clarinet but also on saxes. He is currently a final-year undergraduate at the Guildhall School of Music.

Twice an AYM Award-holder, Gustavo has performed with jazz legend Wynton Marsalis and his Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra as well as appearing on stage with musicians as disparate as Steve Reich and Arun Ghosh, and London luminaries ranging from old-school jazzer Laurie Morgan to mould-breaking Radio3 star Shabaka Hutchings. Gustavo has been a regular member of the UK’s National Youth Jazz Collective as well as youth ensembles based out of King’s Place and the Barbican, and has played in numerous London Jazz Festivals and at the Royal Festival Hall, the Royal Albert Hall and Ronnie Scott’s. His own compositions have been played at the WAC, the Purcell School and the Guildhall, and took him to the semi-final of the BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year.
