Additional Details

Henry Russell (1812-1900) was an Anglo-Jewish pianist composer who wrote this piece with his frequent lyricist Charles Mackay during his five-year stay in America. It was dedicated to the important Jewish-American diplomat and author Mordecai Noah "as a slight token of grateful remembrance of early kindness to a stranger."
