Abstract

In this article we are presenting an overview of 200 composers who contracted and suffered from tuberculosis and addictions. The data was collected from over 10 000 biographies and 1000 composers´ pathographies. Besides causing them great suffering and prematurely ending their lives and creativities (sometimes in its prime), tuberculosis was among the most common causes of death in composers.

Keywords
