A Conductor For The Ages, Jonathan E.D. Royce Apr 2015

A Conductor For The Ages, Jonathan E.D. Royce

The Research and Scholarship Symposium (2013-2019)

Herbert von Karajan played a key role in transforming the performance of music in Germany. I will show this by allowing the characteristics of Karajan as a conductor to show his impact upon Germany. I will also use his interest in film as well as Karajan's personal life that helped create a persona that will have a lasting impact on history not only in Germany but also in the world of music.
