Have you ever heard of Leo Kofler? He was an Austrian-born singing teacher (1837-1908), who spent most of his career in the United States. His ideas were later taken up in Germany. You may hear the story that he cured himself of tuberculosis by singing. Spoiler alert: he didn't. Tuberculosis cannot be cured by singing.
