My answer is Egon Wellesz,the Austrian composer & teacher at Lincoln College of Horovitz & Chapell who "sang a song in a new land" (Bach). He became a naturalised Briton, but returned after death to be buried in Vienna. He was interned in the I.O.M. early in WWII with Hans Gal and Karl Schwitters. There's an RCM Project around these and other emigres called something like "Songs in a New Land". It's possible that EW wrote the music to the 1930s film "Kleine Dorritt".
Most of that may be true but not the answer... I'll leave that to Anna!
