Story Behind The Song

I wrote this bossa nova in July of 2010 when I was taking Arranging for Contemporary Styles (Berklee Online). My inspiration was my oldest grandchild, who was getting around on her own and quite pleased with herself! I scored and sequenced the song. However, since I don't play guitar and needed to add authenticity to the performance, I made this AI cover of it.

This lounge version features piano, guitar, and percussion. This is an AI cover to add authenticity to my sequenced song.
