Enzo Muccetti (born 29 June 1912 in Corfinio; died 24 March 1977 in Parma) was a great Italian bassoonist and pedagogue.
He studied at the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Turin, originally with the intention of learning the cello but shifting to the bassoon which was more suited to his small hands.
After conducting a La Scala concert, Paul Hindemith wrote in his programme "if all bassoonists were so marvelous, life, and especially writing for the bassoon, would be more of a joy than it usually is."
Similarly, Herbert von Karajan wrote after a series of concerts at La Scala, "I'm pleased to have found a bassoonist of such stature that in almost all European orchestras there is no one to be compared with you."
Muccetti was a professor at the Parma Conservatory, where his students included Evandro Dall'Oca (his eventual successor at La Scala), Rino Vernizzi (former principal bassoonist in Orchestra dell'Accademia di Santa Cecilia), Luca Reverberi, (Romano Santi, Michael Chapman and Wendy Philips.
