about

On tour, Theodore had a penchant for men singing loudly in chest voice, and any available men were often encouraged to join him. You can hear this hobby of Theo's properly indulged at the start of the piece. He is an excellent musician - the music reflects his love of Romantic-era harmonies and chromatic shifts, and provides confident legato passages for the men. There is also a hint at his passion for riding motorbikes, and a reference to his jokes, usually music-related.

lyrics

Theodore, always searching for more, he’s searching
Laughs at a joke as he sings from the score
Theodore, Theodore
Somewhat old-fashioned, it’s true, but he’s a smart guy
Humble and confident too, he likes to sing high
He likes to sing, he likes to sing high (he likes to laugh)
Laughs at a joke as he sings from the score
Speeding along, he likes to sing
He knows the score

about

Gawain Davey Melbourne, Australia

Music to appreciate and savour.
A slower, softer sound spectrum... quirky, thoughtful words... restless melodies on a lush bed of changing harmony...
Darkness and light mingle.
Gawain writes classical music and contemporary songs.
