Carlos Duarte (June 1, 1957 in Caracas – April 13, 2003) was a Venezuelan composer and pianist. Duarte's premier recital was at age 11. At 16, he won a national award for composition, a prize he won for three consecutive years from 1973 to 1975. He composed some pieces for piano and orchestra: "Ludios" (Ludus), "Sinfonietta La Mar" (Sea Sinfonietta), "Concierto de la Canción Triste" (Sad Song Concerto) and "Requiem para un Idiota" (Requiem for an Idiot). In 1999, he composed a Quintet for the End of the Century ("Quinteto para el Fin del Siglo") and performed the first performances in the same year, with the Arpeggione Quartet (as a piano quintet) and the European Union Chamber Orchestra (as a concerto for piano and string orchestra). His last work was a requiem, entitled "Requiem para un Idiota" (Requiem for an Idiot), for piano (as his own voice), chorus, eight clarinets, eight bassoons, eight contrabassoons and eight double basses. It was premiered after his death, by the Caracas Municipal Symphony Orchestra (Orquesta Sinfónica Municipal de Caracas) on 30 April 2006, conducted by Rodolfo Saglimbeni, with Arnaldo Pizzolante playing the piano part. Both were among the closest friends of Duarte.
