Life
Like other Swiss cheese makers, his grandfather Christian Petrowitsch Frautschi was invited to Russia by Tsar Nicholas II at the end of the 19th century . Frautschi was born in Moscow in 1923 as the son of Artur Christianowitsch Frautschi ("Artusow"). His father played a key role in founding the Soviet secret service and became head of the OGPU's Foreign Intelligence Service (INO) . He eventually fell out of favor with Josef Stalin and was executed in 1937. Kamill was arrested at the age of 16 as the son of a so-called " enemy of the people " and spent a total of five years in the Gulag . He survived his imprisonment as a violinist in the prisoner's orchestra.
After his rehabilitation he studied violin with Jelena Gnessina at the Gnessin Institute in Moscow . After that he was violinist in the Moscow Chamber Orchestra and lecturer at the Rostov Pedagogical University. Later he turned to the guitar. As a freelance music teacher in Moscow , he taught his son Alexander Frautschi as well as Juri Nugmanow , Juri Vedenjapin , Ilja Podolski , Oleg Timofejew , Anna Tontschewa and Evgeni Finkelstein . It was not until the end of the 20th century that the guitar was included in the curriculum of the state conservatories.
