We were so excited to hear Larry’s arrangement of the Brazilian piece Tico Tico no Fubá being performed for the first time at the Distinctly Bronze West concert last Sunday. Here’s a video from one of Sunday’s rehearsal sessions in Portland.

More information about this arrangement

Tico Tico no Fubá is a truly exciting Brazilian piece written by Zequinha de Abreu. Larry’s arranged it for 5-7 octaves of handbells, with 3 octaves of handchimes. It’s Level 5+, and it’s a fun challenge for advanced handbell choirs. You’ll dance as you ring!

Alex Guebert has also created some great percussion parts for this piece – so you have the option to add guiro, maracas, cabasa, tamborim, and claves. Sheet music for the handbell and percussion parts is available for purchase and download from Choraegus. Please read our licensing agreement for full information.
