The Adventures of Sebastian the Fox is a 1963 Australian children's series. The show combined a string puppet, a mischievous fox named Sebastian, who was placed in real-life settings. It was among the first shows of its kind produced in Australia, as it was very different from earlier Australian children's series like Peters Club and Tarax Show. The Sebastian puppet was designed and operated by puppeteer Peter Scriven.

The music was composed by George Dreyfus, who became a leading Australian composer.[1] The score was subsequently arranged by Dreyfus for various small ensemble combinations for performance by young musicians as a complete concert.[2]
