 His published songs included 1908's "Rosemary" with words by Graham Robertson, and "Maid of the Morning", "When a Pullet is Plump" and "The Elephant and the Portmanteau".In turn, these songs resulted in Norton composing music for stage shows, starting with "The Water Maidens" in 1901.In 1911, Norton provided additional music for a production of "Orpheus in the Underworld" at His Majesty's Theatre, which was based on the Offenbach opera of the same name.
