ALFRED BEN ALLEN

Alfred Benjamin Allen (1850-1926?) was born at Kingsland, Middlesex, England. He studied at the London Academy of Music and became known as a concert pianist and concert accompanist. His compositions include orchestral music, a secular cantata, organ music, songs, and part-songs. His humorous part-songs were particularly well received and he often attributed lyrics to “Neb Nella”, part of his name spelled backwards.

All are mixed chorus; some contain divisi.
