George Alexander Osborne (24 September 1806 - 16〔see Hunt (2013); DIB says 17 Nov.〕 November 1893) was an Irish composer and pianist. ==Biography== Osborne was born in Limerick. He left Ireland at the age of eighteen, when he left for Brussels, where he was appointed music instructor for the eldest son of the Dutch king, William of Orange, and became friends with Charles de Bériot. With de Bériot he was later to compose more than 30 duos for violin and piano, which enjoyed great popularity. In 1830 he fought for the royalists in the Belgian revolution, and after his capture and release he moved to Paris.〔Hunt (2013); see Bibliography〕 Here he studied under Johann Peter Pixis, François-Joseph Fétis and Friedrich Kalkbrenner and became friendly with some of the leading musicians of his time including Berlioz and Chopin. In 1843, Osborne settled permanently in London, although he maintained a home in Paris until c.1848, when he encouraged a nervous Chopin during the latter's tour of England in 1848.〔). In London he held directorships of the Philharmonic Society, the Royal Academy of Music,〔Patrick M. Geoghegan, "Osborne, George Alexander", (''Dictionary of Irish Biography'' ), retrieved 28 June 2011〕 and conducted the Amateur Musical Society (from 1852). Osborne died at his home in Regent's Park, London, at the age of 87.〔
