found: Library of Congress biographies, 20 March 2020(Henry Russell, 1812-1900 ; born in 1812 in Sheerness, England, was a noted composer, pianist and singer. He began performing at the early age of three, and later studied composition with Rossini and Bellini in Italy. Russell sailed to Canada to perform solo concerts in the mid 1830s, but the most fruitful part of his career was spent in the United States during the late 1830s and early 1840s. As a popular songwriter and performer, he belonged as much to America as to England, since he published his first songs in America and became a successful performer touring the United States, playing and singing many of his own compositions)
