  Title: British pop music
  Passage: British pop music is popular music, produced commercially in the United Kingdom.  It emerged in the mid-to late 1950s as a softer alternative to rock 'n' roll and later to rock music.  Like American pop music it has a focus on commercial recording, often orientated towards a youth market, as well as that of the Singles Chart usually through the medium of relatively short and simple love songs.  While these basic elements of the genre have remained fairly constant, pop music has absorbed influences from most other forms of popular music, particularly borrowing from the development of rock music, and utilising key technological innovations to produce new variations on existing themes.  From the British Invasion of the 1960s, led by The Beatles, British pop music has alternated between acts and genres with national appeal and those with international success that have had a considerable impact on the development of the wider genre and on popular music in general.
  Title: They Call the Wind Maria
  Passage: "They Call the Wind Maria" is an American popular song with lyrics written by Alan J. Lerner and music by Frederick Loewe for their 1951 Broadway musical, "Paint Your Wagon", which is set in the California Gold Rush.  Rufus Smith originally sang the song on Broadway, and Joseph Leader was the original singer in London's West End.  It quickly became a runaway hit, and during the Korean War, the song was among the "popular music listened to by the troops".  Vaughan Monroe and his Orchestra recorded the song in 1951, and it was among the "popular hit singles at the record stores" that year.  It has since become a standard, performed by many notable singers across several genres of popular music.  A striking feature of the song in the original orchestration (also used in many cover versions), is a driving, staccato rhythm, played on the string instruments, that evokes a sense of restless motion.
  Title: Musical composition
  Passage: Musical composition can refer to an original piece of music, either a song or an instrumental music piece, the structure of a musical piece, or the process of creating or writing a new song or piece of music.  People who create new compositions are called composers in classical music.  In popular music and traditional music, the creators of new songs are usually called songwriters; with songs, the person who writes new words for a song is the lyricist.  "Composition" is the act or practice of creating a song or other piece of music.  In many cultures, including Western classical music, the act of composing typically includes the creation of music notation, such as a sheet music "score", which is then performed by the composer or by other instrumental musicians or singers.  In popular music and traditional music, songwriting may involve the creation of a basic outline of the song, called the lead sheet, which sets out the melody, lyrics and chord progression.  In classical music, orchestration (choosing the instruments of a large music ensemble such as an orchestra which will play the different parts of music, such as the melody, accompaniment, countermelody, bassline and so on) is typically done by the composer, but in musical theatre and in pop music, songwriters may hire an arranger to do the orchestration.  In some cases, a pop or traditional songwriter may not use written notation at all, and instead compose the song in her mind and then play, sing and/or record it from memory.  In jazz and popular music, notable sound recordings by influential performers are given the weight that written or printed scores play in classical music.
  Title: Jimmy Kennedy
  Passage: James Kennedy {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} (20 July 1902 – 6 April 1984) was a Northern Irish songwriter, predominantly a lyricist, putting words to existing music such as "Teddy Bears' Picnic" and "My Prayer", or co-writing with the composers Michael Carr, Wilhelm Grosz (a.k.a. Hugh Williams) and Nat Simon, among others.  In a career spanning more than fifty years, he wrote some 2000 songs, of which over 200 became worldwide hits and about 50 are all-time popular music classics.  Until the duo of Lennon and McCartney, Kennedy had more hits in the United States than any other Irish or British songwriter.
  Title: Bob Dylan
  Passage: Bob Dylan ( ; born Robert Allen Zimmerman, May 24, 1941) is an American singer, songwriter, musician, painter, and writer.  He has been influential in popular music and culture for more than five decades.  Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when he became a reluctant "voice of a generation" with songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'", which became anthems for the Civil Rights Movement and anti-war movement.  Leaving behind his initial base in the American folk music revival, his six-minute single "Like a Rolling Stone", recorded in 1965, enlarged the range of popular music.
  Title: Blind Leroy Garnett
  Passage: Leroy Roscoe Garnett, known professionally as Blind Leroy Garnett (August 6, 1897 – January 3, 1933) was an American boogie-woogie and ragtime pianist and songwriter.  His two solo recorded compositions were "Louisiana Glide" and "Chain 'Em Down", although scant details of his life and career are known.
  Title: Geoff Morrow
  Passage: Geoffrey Stanton "Geoff" Morrow (born 16 May 1942, London, England) is a British songwriter and businessman.  His compositions have been recorded by Sandie Shaw, The Carpenters, Elvis Presley, Johnny Mathis, Jessie J, Barry Manilow and many other musicians.  Many of his early compositions were co-written by David Martin and/or Chris Arnold, with whom he also recorded, both as 'Arnold, Martin and Morrow' and under the group name of 'Butterscotch'.  Fellow songwriter and producer Phil Wainman played the drums for Butterscotch.
  Title: Ray Martin (orchestra leader)
  Passage: Ray Martin (Raymond Stuart Martin; born Kurt Kohn and later anglicised his name) (11 October 1918 - 7 February 1988) was a British-Austrian orchestra leader.  He was noted for his light music compositions.  Allmusic journalist, Bradley Torreano stated "Ray Martin created a legacy for himself in British popular music through his work with his orchestra during the 1950s.  His regular appearances on radio and television kept him in the public spotlight, while his position at EMI Records made him an influential producer at the label.  His use of pseudonyms has blurred the path of his career through the years, making his many contributions even harder to keep track of.  But his original compositions are what really made him popular; tracks like "Marching Strings" have become stables of many public and city bands and orchestras since their release".
