The Venezuelan pianist Teresa Carreño was one of the most virtuosic and brilliant artists of her age. A prodigy, she won the admiration of Gottschalk and Anton Rubinstein, and gave sold-out concerts across the halls of America, Europe and Australasia.

A tumultuous private life did not, however, preclude composition, and her works, marked by stringent expressive detail and a generally melancholy depth, offer a richly rewarding body of repertoire.
