What Dominique Pagani says
Dominique Pagani mentions Hans von Bülow mainly in connection with Wagner. He presents him as the most prestigious and charismatic conductor of his time, from a great family of the Prussian nobility, and as Cosima's first husband, whom Wagner "carries off" from him12. He often returns to the same anecdote: after conducting a rehearsal of Tristan, Bülow is said to have declared that the man who wrote this must be forgiven everything34. He brings it up in varied contexts, from the Odyssey to Racine and then a reflection on evil. He also notes that Bülow produced the piano score of Tristan. Finally, he points to his taste for Hindu philosophy. In a session on Beethoven's Arietta, he reports that Bülow saw in one variation an avatar of Brahma letting a mask fall, and he considers that he "was not wrong"56.

Who is this?Freiherr Hans Guido von Bülow (German: ; 8 January 1830 – 12 February 1894) was a German conductor, pianist, and composer of the Romantic era. As one of the most distinguished conductors of the 19th century, his activity was critical for establishing the successes of several major composers of the time, especially Richard Wagner and Johannes Brahms. Alongside Carl Tausig, Bülow was perhaps the most prominent of the early students of the Hungarian composer, pianist and conductor Franz Liszt; he gave the first public performance of Liszt's Sonata in B minor in 1857.
