When my wife and I returned from South America in January, my first task was to write a piece for my then 3-month old niece. We were due for a visit and I knew I wanted to do something nice, so this seemed perfect!! Always fun writing for something so specific, and of course trying to impress, trying to trigger a smile (or heck, trying to send to sleep) is the all important task.
It is mainly a piano solo but it also features a celesta to provide some highlights along the way.
