“Teresa Carreno, the Child Pianist, so famed and wonderful, reappears in Grand Concert, aided by the most efficient talent.”

“Teresa Carreno’s concert tonight should be remembered by the lovers of piano-forte music; the marvelous little girl has vastly improved since her last public appearance. She will be assisted by excellent vocal talent. The concert takes place at Dodworth’s.”

“[A] brilliant example of digital dexterity on the piano, in the person, not of a grown artist, but a little girl—Teresa Carreno. . . . An arm of wonderful vigor, allied to hands of the utmost flexibility, and a superior musical organization, are the endowments which she brings at a tender age to delight her audiences. She attacks with the energy of an adult the difficulties of Thalberg and Liszt, and executes them neatly and clearly. Altogether a most extraordinary performance.”

Just a brief mention in an announcement for her second concert on the following Monday, April 18, 1864. Carreño was to be “assisted by the same artists who made the event of last Friday interesting to their friends.”
