- Q21597973 abstract "Ray Jessel (born Raymond Jessel, 16 October 1929 – 17 July 2015) was a Welsh songwriter, orchestrator, and musical theatre composer. Born in Cardiff, he received a degree in music from the University of Wales. With a one-year scholarship for studying musical composition, he went to Paris and studied under Arthur Honegger. He moved to Canada with his family at the age of 26. He started his career as an orchestrator and composer for CBC Radio and CBC Television. There he met his lifelong songwriting partner, Marian Grudeff, a Canadian pianist. Together they played active roles in orchestral and theatrical compositions.Their major breakthrough came with the 1964 Broadway musical Baker Street. They were originally noticed by the Broadway producer Alexander H. Cohen, who signed them for the musical. Their next score Hellzapoppin was not a success, but their title song was recorded by Jimmy Durante and Louis Armstrong. He moved to Hollywood and made successful career with musicals and sketches for The Dean Martin Show, The Carol Burnett Show, The Smothers Brothers Show, The Bob Newhart Show, Comedy Factory, and various John Denver specials. He was a story editor of the ABC comedy The Love Boat from 1977 to 1980, and writer and consultant of Head of the Class from 1986 to 1991. He wrote and produced the CBC TV series The Jacksons. He also co-wrote, with Martin Charnin, lyrics for I Remember Mama in 1979.He was persuaded by Michael Feinstein and Shelly Goldstein.
