Alfred Anderson (c. January 1848 – 22 March 1876) was an Australian pianist of Jewish extraction who had a promising career but died young.
[4] She was obliged to break her schedule a few weeks later in Melbourne, as her husband was gravely ill. As a result, her fans in that city were treated to additional performances, in Lucia di Lammermoor and La Sonnambula, alternating nights with Fannie Simonsen.
[5] Anderson, who had been suffering intermittently before the marriage, died on 22 March[6] at his father's house, 1 Lansdowne Terrace, East Melbourne.
De Murska married again, two months later, on 15 May 1876, while on tour in Dunedin, New Zealand, to John Hill, a friend and colleague of Anderson.
Some years later, the New York Sun published (Murska's manager) De Vivo's account of "the old Jewish father" barring her way with his cane.
