Jashgawronsky Brothers
The Jashgawronsky Brothers are an Italian comedian group founded in 1999 , consisting of the actor and musician Paolo Rozzi, director Diego Carli and percussionist, pianist and composer Tommaso Castiglioni.
The trio, which also appears under the name “The Incredible Jashgawronsky Brothers”, pretends to come from Armenia and uses the pseudonyms Pavel (Rozzi), Tomash (Castiglioni) and Suren (Carli) Jashgawronsky when performing . According to their own account, they are brothers who were abandoned in Yerevan in front of the Khachatur Abovyan orphanage and "spent their first twenty years under the strict supervision of Mrs. Karapetian, who forced them to take music lessons."
In their repertoire they interpret pieces from classical to folk music to blues . A special feature is that they make their own instruments from everyday objects such as plastic bottles, coffee spoons and tin cans.
The Jashgawronsky Brothers performed at the London International Mime Festival , the Festival d'Almagro and in 2003 at the OpenAir St. Gallen . Her appearance at the 3satfestival in Mainz in 2002 was broadcast on television.
