Biography

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 wrote his own texts, frequently under the pseudonym “Neb Nella”–his name spelled backwards.
