EDITORS COMMENTS
Paal Roschberg, also known as "Rocky" or the "Twin Stars of Berlin," is seen here in a captivating photograph taken in 1938 in the German capital city. Roschberg, born as Pal and Paul Roschberg, were identical twins who rose to fame in the jazz world during the 1930s. Their unique musical talent and charisma made them a sensation in the European jazz scene, and they were often compared to the legendary American jazz duo, Louis and Ella Armstrong. In this image, Roschberg wears a sharp suit and a confident expression, holding a trumpet in his hands. The photograph was taken in one of Berlin's famous music halls, where the twins frequently performed. The hall's Art Deco design and elegant decor can be seen in the background, adding to the glamour and sophistication of the scene. The year 1938 was a significant one for Roschberg. They had just returned from a successful tour of Paris, where they had been hailed as the "New Stars of Europe." However, the political climate in Europe was growing increasingly volatile, and the twins would soon be forced to flee Germany due to the rising anti-Semitic sentiment. They eventually settled in the United States, where they continued to perform and record music until the end of their careers. Despite the challenges they faced, Roschberg's music continued to shine, leaving a lasting legacy in the jazz world. This photograph captures a moment in time when they were at the height of their fame, showcasing their undeniable talent and the magic they brought to the stage.
