Although this section is categorized as non-show music, many items filed here are merely sketches or song fragments and the original intention of the song or melody is not known. Therefore, the song in question could have been written for a show, but without any evidence for this, these items have been filed as song titles in the Non-Show Music series. Confirmed show music was also found and kept among the non-show materials, giving an opportunity to study Berlin's skill at recycling material.
