The Bostonians have been enjoying some of the wonderful piano-playing of that little prodigy, Teresa Carreno. The papers say she has improved greatly since last year, when she created a genuine furore. Although only ten years old she performed such pieces as Gottschalk’s March de Nuit, Chopin’s Marche Funebre and some of Liszt’s most difficult paraphrases, as well as two little danzas of her own, which were highly commended. She was unfortunately prevented by a felon from completing her engagements in Boston [suffered an injury].
