| Chrysalis confident after Beatles boost, Kylie album Posted: 26 May 2010 03:12 AM PDT LONDON (Reuters) - British music publisher Chrysalis expects a strong second half from its writers behind artists such as Kylie Minogue and Adele, after seeing a 15 percent hike in its first-half share of income from royalties. Chrysalis said it had been helped in the first half by consecutive U.S. no.1 hits co-written and produced by its writers: Taio Cruz's "Break My Heart," written by Fraser T Smith, and "Rude Boy" by Rihanna, writen by Rob Swire. Robbie Williams also attained chart success with "You Know Me" and "Morning Sun," which were co-written by Chrysalis writers Soul Mekanik, with album sales reaching 2.5 million. Chief executive Jeremy Lascelles told Reuters he was very pleased with the results in light of the difficult economic conditions and said he was confident of building on the success in the second half. The first half was also boosted by Chrysalis' involvement with the remastered Beatles catalogue which has sold well, giving the company an overall 15 percent rise in consolidated net publishing share to 7.5 million pounds. Lascelles said Chrysalis expected competition for the new catalogue to remain strong and said he expected further consolidation, after it acquired the music publishing business First State Media in April. "The companies that were private equity-based or VC backed are probably looking to exit so my sense is there will be quite a fair bit of activity," he said, adding that Chrysalis could look to acquire more small to mid-size catalogue. Normalised operating profit for the six months ended March 31 rose by 1.2 million pounds to 2.6 million pounds. Revenue was 32.7 million pounds, up from 31.2 million. Chrysalis owns songs by David Bowie, Blondie and Gnarls Barkley, among others.

| Classic Hollywood: 'How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying' Posted: 25 May 2010 06:45 PM PDT Rarely does one describe a 79-year-old man as "boyish" (and actually mean it), but the phrase fits Robert Morse like a comfortable pair of shoes. His hair may be gray, but the impish personality, young countenance and modified Beatles haircut still remain from when he catapulted to Broadway stardom and his first Tony Award nearly 50 years ago in the Frank Loesser-Abe Burrows musical "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." Morse went on to star in such films as "The Loved One" (1965) and "A Guide for the Married Man" and the film version of "How to Succeed," both from 1967. "He is boyish," agrees "Mad Men" executive producer and creator Matthew Weiner, who cast Morse in the Emmy Award-winning series as the Ayn Rand-loving, bow-tie-wearing and often shoeless advertising giant Bertram Cooper, founding partner in the Madison Avenue ad agency Sterling Cooper. In the season beginning July 25, he is a founding partner in the new agency Sterling Cooper Draper and Pryce. "He is just naturally playful, a youthful eccentric," Weiner says. "He is an original." When Morse learns his visitor has followed his career since she was a kid in the 1960s, he breaks into a wide grin. "Did you have a crush on me?" he asks. "Sorry. No." "Darn it," he replies. Morse, who also won a Tony 20 years ago for his uncanny depiction of Truman Capote in "Tru," is grateful at this point in his long career to get a show like "Mad Men." "I had no idea of what I was getting into," says Morse, relaxing in an office at the studios in downtown Los Angeles where "Mad Men" films. When he read for Weiner, the actor says, "he said to me, 'I'm so grateful that you came in. I wanted somebody of your age and that background.' I read and went home and they called me and said I got the part. I was elated." Five Filters featured article: The Art of Looking Prime Ministerial - The 2010 UK General Election.
