Teresa Carreno (1853-1917)
Teresa Carreno was a pianist, composer, singer, and conductor from Venezuela. At age eight she went to the U.S. to study with Gottschalk, and began her career at twelve. The musician married Emile Sauret, the violinist, in 1872, and performed sonatas with him. Carreno composed music for both piano and strings. She spent a few years conducting and singing in an opera company in Venezuela before returning to the piano in 1889.
