At the University of Innsbruck he studied a. a. with Adolf Pichler , Anton Kerner von Marilaun and Camill Heller . Kohl first worked as a school teacher in Bolzano and then in Innsbruck , but gave up teaching in 1880. In Switzerland, he was with Henri de Saussure with hymenopterologischen employs studies. After five years of unpaid volunteering, he got a job at the Natural History Museum Vienna in 1885 , where he built up its hymenopterological collection. He specialized in hymenoptera , particularly Sphecidae . In 1921 he was appointed councilor .
Kohl is considered to be the first systematic collector of Tyrolean folk songs. As a folk song researcher, he initially belonged to the circle around Josef Pommer . Together with Josef Reiter , he founded the German Folk Song Association Vienna in 1903, and from 1905 he also worked with Emil Karl Blümml . Well-known folk songs such as Es wird scho glei dumpa or Heidschi Bumbeidschi have been passed on through his publications .
