An Englishman and Londoner, Hermann Klein (1856-1934) was a prolific writer, voice teacher, and student of the legendary voice teacher Manuel García (1805-1906). After arriving in New York City in 1901 to teach García's method, Klein became the Chairman of the newly-formed National Association of Teachers of Singing. To further the organization's goal of bringing standards and certification to the singing teacher profession, Klein wrote an 84-page singing manual utilizing the new technology of the gramophone. In doing so, Klein documented the studio teaching of the father of voice science, revealing details of García's method for the first time. However, Klein's manual was subsequently lost for more than a century after the quest for certification failed, Klein returned to England, and the recordings perished in a fire--twice.
