Austrian pianist, darling of the Viennese concert stage in the 1820s. Born in Guntramsdorf, Austria, on November 15, 1811; died in Boulogne, France, on January 12, 1887.
A child prodigy who studied with Moscheles and Friedrich Kalkbrenner, Marie Leopoldine Blahetka was the idol of Vienna in the 1820s. Chopin met her in 1829 and was impressed by her art, describing her as being "young, pretty and a pianist."
