Summary
Dominique Pagani mainly uses Karajan as a point of comparison to place Hans von Bülow: several times, from 2019 to 2024, he says that Bülow was "the Karajan of his day"1. In a 2017 session, however, he judges him "nothing next to" Bülow2. He also counts him among the Wagnerian conductors3. He singles out several of his Wagner recordings: a Valkyrie that may be the best one on record4, a Ring he considers excellent5 and the Meistersinger with Elisabeth Schwarzkopf6. He also sees him as a discoverer of singers and the first conductor to understand the modern recording studio4. In a session on interpretation, he recalls a performer Karajan chose for the Mozart bicentenary tour7.
