Sadie Harrison writes: 'Theo's Toddle is the second piece in an ongoing set
inspired by my grandson and his great-great-uncle, a fine musician also
called Theo. Unsteady on his feet, baby Theo is heard toddling along to the
rhythm of a wonky tango. At one point he sings a version of Bye, Baby
Bunting! before toddling off again and occasionally falling over.' Sadie
Harrison was born in Adelaide, Australia, moving to England in 1970 where she
undertook composition studies with Nicola Lefanu gaining her Phd at Kings
College, London. Sadie's music has been played internationally in venues such
as the Sydney Opera House, Carnegie Hall, Royal Festival hall, Barbican and
