Emanuele Maniscalco (born 1983) is an Italian jazz pianist, drummer and composer.
Maniscalco was born in Brescia in 1983. He began playing the piano at the age of 8 and the drums at 12. He is largely self-taught on both instruments, but he attended the monthly workshops of Stefano Battaglia in Siena between 2001 and 2008. He played with trumpeter Enrico Rava between 2004 and 2007.
In 2012, Maniscalco recorded for ECM Records as drummer and co-leader of the trio Third Reel. Two years later, the same group, this time with Maniscalco on piano and drums, recorded Many More Days for ECM.
"As early influences on his compositional style he cites Carla Bley, Paul Motian and Charlie Haden."
