Artist Spotlight
In conversation: Tatty Theo
What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Coffee, being in nature (ideally close to the sea), gardening, decorating, a swim, then a fabulous home-cooked meal in Norfolk with family and friends. Baked goods ought to feature.
What is your greatest fear?
I’m deeply claustrophobic; I’m terrified of getting trapped in an enclosed space.
What is your superpower?
I love a good challenge, the tougher it is, the more I sink my teeth into it. It doesn’t matter whether it’s music or anything else for that matter.
What are your hobbies and interests outside music?
I love outdoor activities such as swimming, running, and cycling, being in ancient woodlands (forest bathing), staring at the full moon, watching the sun go down, either over the sea or a favourite field in Norfolk, and photography.
What is it that you most dislike?
I’d have to say mayonnaise.
What’s so special about early music concerts?
The feeling of creating this special and inviting ‘lost’ sound-world, a portal to another era, the closest we get to time-travel. Experimental archaeologists.
What is your earliest musical memory?
Dancing round my grandparents’ record player, listening to some ‘Bibaldi’ (AKA Vivaldi) when I was about 2 or 3 years old.
