Hola, soy venezolana, tengo 12 años. Mi maestra de arte y patrimonio nos ha mandado a investigar algunos artistas venezolanos. Pero no sabia que esta mujer era tan talentosa. La admiro totalmente, una obra de arte.
Teresa Carreno lived some years in my neighbour town in a nice Villa called Villa Teresa. We have there a museum about her life with her husband Eugen D'Albert and make concerts and events there. It is in Germany near Dresden. We have Eugen D'Alberts original Steinway grand piano and I am sooo happy that I may play on it! www.villa-teresa.de/
This has been my favorite piece for piano since finding it on UA-cam in 2010. Thank you so much for this. When I turn on my old iPod, I still have the UA-cam to mp3 file on there (used to be flv to mp3)
I had never heard of this composer before now but I sure am glad I have! Many sections of this piece remind me of Chopin, his etudes in particular, but nonetheless it is a beautiful and original piece. Looking forward to doing more research on her!
FUN FACT: Teresa Carreño was an in-law of the South American independence leader Simón Bolívar, through her mother's cousin who became his wife. Both died before Carreño was born.
Great piece. I favour her souvenirs de mon pays a lot more though. Would love to see that here with sheet music as well, since I could not find it anywhere. Thank you very much :)
This is wonderful music. All it lacks are those brief moments of magical surprise that you find in the masters like Chopin. She was obviously a marvelous pianist and needs to be better represented in the story of 19th century music. For me the piece is just too friendly and obvious. I like the occasional trip to the dark side with a touch of mystery.
What a saccharine rip off of Chopin. Stole verbatim from Chopin’s etude no. 10 op. 10. If Czerny, Alkan, or Sydney Smith had written this you all would have rightly said “how banal and unmemorable”. Try and remember the main melody: you can’t cause this sucks. There exist many original, female composers of quality: Louise Guilmont, Backer-grondahl, eckhardt-grammate etc..but this attempt by this one female is a bit sub par.
I agree. To your list of late-19th-century female piano-composers, let me add Cécile Chaminade and Augusta Holmes. I have to confess, though, that I'd previously never heard of Louise Guilmont, or Agathe Backer Grøndahl, or Sophie Carmen Eckhardt-Gramatté. Now off to seek performances of _their_ music on UA-cam!
Not by any means a great piece of music. Typical 19th century salon music for piano. Shades of Chopin for sure. Melodically, I find it to be quite banal. Sounds like something an Accompanist might improvise in ballet class. Whatever.
Webster, I agree. tteera, not to take anything away from how anyone else might answer your question, here are some things about it which _I_ don't like. After the initial cadenza, what we have is no ballade. A ballade needs more variety and more drama than this. Chopin's four fine examples show what can be done in a Ballade, but, applied to this piece, the title Ballade is rather pretentious. What title would be more appropriate? Rondo? But that initial theme comes back so often, it gets rather boring. We never stray all that far away from it, with the exception of a nice moment where, for a few bars, we are in F♭ (5:41), and for once that clumsy modulation from D♭ to F in the theme proves useful, because, in this transposition, it gets us via A♭ back to the tonic D♭. Now in a rondo I would expect some variety within the episodes between the returns of the theme, and variety between them. In this piece we get hardly any of either; our rondo is almost in ABABA form, and each B relies too much on repetition of a small half-bar figure. Talking of clumsy things, there are a couple more clumsy little passages which a composer with attention to detail would have avoided. 0:59 As I said, clumsy; such a dramatic modulation should be saved up for later. 1:11 Ugh, that bass line. G, G♭ would be correct if the bass went down to F, but it goes up to A♭, so the correct order is G♭, G.

There is so much cliché, fruitless repetition, empty histrionics, and bungled harmony that I find it hard to take seriously. Every once in awhile a composer emerges from underserved obscurity. T. Carreño is not in that league. There is nothing here that many other composers did much, much better. Sorry for this opinion -- I was hoping for something really fine or at least interesting, but this is a disappointment.
Hey, I find your comment interesting. Do you mind explaining? This is the piece I wanted to study to get into school to compose-which I ended up doing.

Thank you! I am a Venezuelan and I never thought there was such a good and prodigious composer from my country, so thank you.

Not a composer I was familiar with before, I keep discovering composers thanks to you.
4:35 This little section, which repeats later, sounds very similar to Chopin's etude op. 10, no. 10. Very interesting piece.
Very true
I'm interested in her piano music since I found that she was the only pupil whom Gottschalk had taught. Love this piece :)
This has been my favorite piece for piano since finding it on UA-cam in 2010. Thank you so much for this. When I turn on my old iPod, I still have the UA-cam to mp3 file on there (used to be flv to mp3)
Loverly
I admire this style of piano music
Beautiful
I had never heard of this composer before now but I sure am glad I have! Many sections of this piece remind me of Chopin, his etudes in particular, but nonetheless it is a beautiful and original piece. Looking forward to doing more research on her!
I find it more similar to the ballad of Czerny's Op.692
If many sections reminded you of another composer, then how is it original?
Parts of it are a blatant rip off of Chopin's op10 #10
yet I love it for its historical value.
Thank you so much for these uploads of Carreño!! Greetings from Venezuela 🇻🇪
Hermosa, que genial compositor
Love the harmonies!
Great!
Soy coreano y me gusta escuchar esta canción.
This is a cool piece I like
FUN FACT: Teresa Carreño was an in-law of the South American independence leader Simón Bolívar, through her mother's cousin who became his wife. Both died before Carreño was born.
Thank you for sharing.
I found Chopin Barkarola in her piece❣️💕
Superb! Great find :)
Her music is beautiful, so why hasn't she been heard more often?
I inspired this beautiful lady
No
Thank you for your fantastic etude n.10 op.10 🙏
Badass :)
Super...
Favorite part @3:21-4:21. True blend of Liszt and Chopin.
Superb handwriting! xD
It s vert good !
Thank you
Edward MacDowell was a friend and was one of her students.
Great piece. I favour her souvenirs de mon pays a lot more though. Would love to see that here with sheet music as well, since I could not find it anywhere. Thank you very much :)
Unfortunately, I can't find the score for the Souvenir, or of the Marche funebre which I actually intended to make. Sorry.
@@thenameisgsarci ah just my luck... No worries though. Keep it up with the uploads, you are doing great.
This sounds like an almost Liszt like fusion of Romanticism and Pre-Impressionistic textures
Reminds me of Liszt's version of the Soirées de Vienne valse.
underrated af

Beautiful piece, very cramped engraving though!
yes we hear more Chopin than Liszt in this nice composition :)
Well Chopin, it's just the time period people have been living in ... (better said)
Some sequences make me think of Chopins Ballades
A passinate reminiscence of Gottschalk and Chopin
Scherzetto by F Buencamino Sr. pls😭
I don't have the score, if the piece even exists.
thenameisgsarci You can search the music sheet on this website www.scribd.com :)
Scribd, oh dear...
Also found a "Mazurka Boholano" there too just now, nice. Hope there's a recording somewhere though. :'/
I see here liszt inspiriation
No inspiration at all
I think it’s more of a Chopin inspiration, a lot of it sounds like a Chopin nocturne
@@Kalen1457 In alcuni passaggi ricorda anche Studi e Polacche di Chopin
@@Kalen1457 I find it more similar to the ballad of Czerny's Op.692
I agree, some parts sounds Lisztian to me as well.
Better than Clara Schumann and some Chopin's pieces!!!!
Definitely not.
Definitely yes😊
@@guillermocorvalan3725 It sounds like Chopin with brain damage
Sappy.

Demential
Repetitive, unoriginal, needlessly difficult, and uninteresting
There is so much cliché, fruitless repetition, empty histrionics, and bungled harmony that I find it hard to take seriously. Every once in awhile a composer emerges from underserved obscurity. T. Carreño is not in that league. There is nothing here that many other composers did much, much better.

Nonsense.
You are deaf and sick.
It's really bad
This is really poor. Banal , empty, epigonic and partially stolen.
Hey, I find your comment interesting. Do you mind explaining? This is the piece I wanted to study to get into school to compose-which I ended up doing.
But I would love to know what was stolen? I do hear similarities to Chopin’s etudes but unsure.
