PATTERN Large Lavender Live Hand

Jascha Lombardi is the conductor of the Jascha Lombardi Orchestra. Jascha and his group provide the music for Guy Smiley's "The Weather Show," as seen in the eponymous one-shot Sesame Street sketch.

The laconic, put-upon Jascha is referred to by Guy as "a million laughs." However, he suffers many indignities and privations as a result of the various kinds of weather showcased on the show. His flowing hair is revealed as a toupee when it's swept off by the wind.

His name is a reference to two different conductors. His first name refers to Jascha Horenstein, while the surname recalls famed bandleader Guy Lombardo.
