He has also initiated many musical projects of his own, including the creation of numerous ensembles (Duo Calace, Luxembourg Mandolin Quintet, Duo Mu\u00f1oz-Pav\u00f3n, Il Forum Musicale, Artemandoline). He is co-founder of the Stage International de Mandoline et de Guitare and artistic director of the First International Mandolin Competition in Luxembourg.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With the ensemble Artemandoline, formed in 2001, Juan Carlos Mu\u00f1oz chose to go back to the original documents in order to the establish the true pedigree of this incomparable family of instruments. He had made a major contribution to launching a movement to encourage musical freshness and rigour. To ensure that music composed in the past does not sound like mere \u2018early music\u2019 in the present, the performers must manage to be sufficiently free, spontaneous, anticipative and astonished in their intimate act of creation and the newness it engenders. Juan Carlos Mu\u00f1oz spend his lives searching out and reviving forgotten masterpieces of the mandolin repertory. He\u2019s not content with simply presenting his finds like \u2018musical archaeologists\u2019, but endeavour to transmit them to the wider public by means of the essential act of communication between interpreters, composers, and listeners.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He is regularly invited to give masterclasses throughout Europe, USA and in Japan and takes part in a number of international competitions as a jury member (Spain, Japan, Germany, Italy, Belgium..).
