Franzl Lang (1930-2015) is remembered in popular culture as the Jodlerkönig.
Franzl Lang, the Jodlerkönig - Wikipedia
As the Yodel King he is universally regarded as one of the most technically skilled alpine yodelers in history.
Sporting his signature Bavarian Lederhosen and playing either a guitar or accordion he brought traditional Volksmusik into the mainstream German television and developed a massive following both in Germany and abroad cutting more than forty albums and selling millions of copies worldwide. He secured multiple gold and platinum records.
He taught the complex art of alpine yodeling and published several books on the subject before retiring in the early 2000s.
