Marchesi, Giovanni

1860-1951
nickname(s): "Tugnarel"

piper (&c.) mentioned by name

Born [and lived?] in Altarelli, a hamlet near Mezzano Scotti (Dorba valley, prov. Piacenza); He inherited his nickname from his father; Using the Piva of his cousin, Luigi Magistrati, his activity was well known, but he doesn’t seem to have reached the same level of appreciation, so much so that in the area the expression "you are out of tune like Tugnarel’s Piva !" was used.

Instrument: Piva emiliana
