In 2025, he collaborated with BIFA and Grierson-nominated director Daisy-May Hudson on her most recent production, and continues as composer for double BAFTA-winning series Who Do You Think You Are?

​

Other recent highlights include the Ivor Novello-nominated score for Three Little Birds (recorded at RAK and Abbey Road Studios), BBC's critically acclaimed The Holy Land & Us, and award-winning campaigns for The National Gallery, Nike, Volvo, Pernod Ricard and more.

In addition to his work for screen, he also works as an arranger and orchestrator for top 10-charting artists and producers. 

Theo began his training as a chorister and violinist, touring internationally from a young age before going on to Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music & Dance where he studied Violin and Composition with a double scholarship. In 2025, he was offered a place to study conducting under Mark Shapiro as part of the Juilliard School. He is fortunate to play on a Austrian Neuner & Horsteiner Violin (circa. 1879).
