   • 2017 September 3, “Clara Wieck: una virtuosa de la música… y del amor”, in La Nacion‎^[1]:

     A los 8 años ya se presentaba en las principales ciudades alemanas y a los 11 deslumbró a todo París con su prodigioso talento: los parisinos no eran fáciles de impresionar: estaban acostumbrados a los fuegos de artificio pianísticos de Liszt y Chopin, y a la mefistofélica prestidigitación de Paganini.

     At the age of 8 he was already appearing in the major German cities, and at 11 he dazzled the whole of Paris with his prodigal talent - the Parisians weren't easy customers to please - they were used to the explosive piano pieces of Liszt and Chopin, and the Mephistophelean fingerwork of Paganini
