Arranged for Trombone Quartet "Tico-Tico no fubá" ("sparrow in the cornmeal", or, literally, "rufous-collared sparrow in the cornmeal") is a Brazilian choro song written by Zequinha de Abreu in 1917. A great arrangement for your next performance, sure to be a big hit with your audience!

Its original title was "Tico-Tico no farelo" ("sparrow in the bran"), but since Brazilian guitarist Américo Jacomino "Canhoto" (1889?1928) had a work with the same title, Abreu's work was given its present name in 1931, and sometime afterward Aloysio de Oliveira wrote the original Portuguese lyrics.

Eros Volusia and her dancers dance to "Tico-Tico" in 1942 Rio Rita. Ethel Smith performed "Tico-Tico" onscreen in Bathing Beauty (1944). Carmen Miranda performed "Tico-Tico" onscreen in Copacabana (1947); It was also featured in the "Aquarela do Brasil" segment of the Walt Disney film Saludos Amigos (1942) and in Woody Allen's Radio Days (1987).

In Quebec the song has been used for several decades in commercials for Sico paint.

In season three of Mama's Family episode "An Ill Wind," an intoxicated Iola briefly sings the song's chorus before passing out onto a bed.

This song can be heard on various episodes of the Belgian Kabouter Wesley cartoon.

In season one of Narcos: Mexico, episode 3 ("El Padrino?), the orchestral version of the song is played by a band during a reception. A biographical movie about Zequinha de Abreu with the same title, Tico-Tico no Fubá was produced in 1952 by the Brazilian film studio Companhia Cinematográfica Vera Cruz, starring Anselmo Duarte as Abreu.

The title phrase also features in the lyrics to the song "O Pato" made famous by João Gilberto.

Choro (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈʃoɾu], "cry" or "lament"), also popularly called chorinho ("little cry" or "little lament"), is an instrumental Brazilian popular music genre which originated in 19th century Rio de Janeiro. Despite its name, the music often has a fast and happy rhythm. It is characterized by virtuosity, improvisation and subtle modulations, and is full of syncopation and counterpoint. Choro is considered the first characteristically Brazilian genre of urban popular music. The serenaders who play choros are known as chorões.

Jordon Drumgoole has arranged four lesser-known gems by master Ragtime composer, Scott Joplin. Ragtime Suite for Trombone Quartet includes the following four rags:

1. Original Rags, 2. Euphonic Sounds, 3. Pineapple Rag and 4. March Majestic

These rags are arranged in very comfortable keys and have easy ranges for all parts; plus, they can be performed by moderately advanced performers. The entire Suite with all repeats contains 14 minutes of delightful music that will get everyone's feet tapping!

The Clef Studies by Vladislav Blazhevich, composed in 1925 are a staple of the Trombone repertoire. Their quality is superb, not only for teaching the clefs, but solid technique and musical style as well.

Karl Lyden has brilliantly arranged Three Studies for Trombone Quartet inspired by the Blazhevich Clef Studies for Trombone based on numbers 56, 54 and 65 (subtitled Five Etude having a funk feel to it). They are very musically interesting, rhythmically challenging and fun to perform.

Here is a description of the Three Studies by arranger Karl Lynden:

"The seed for the Blazhevich Three Studies for Trombone Quartet came from my desire to write for my trombone quartet during undergraduate studies at Nebraska-Lincoln. I was tinkering with study No. 64 from Blazhevich?s Clef Studies for Trombone book and began to imagine pulsating trombone chords and ostinatos. The original was in 5/8 so I dubbed that arrangement ?Five Etude?.

Several years later, I had similar experiences with two other works from the book (No. 54 and 56). For the latter No. 56, I originally imagined it as a mournful duo between trombone and cello. I then flushed out the implied harmony to allow for four trombones.

No. 54 is more harmonically dense with an active bass line. It should be played majestically but come to rest in a subsided manner.For all three studies, I deviate slightly from the written form. However, the melody always remains constant as a means of generating new textures, harmonies, and rhythms. My hope is that trombonists in quartets will experience these familiar etudes in a new light."

Ciacona (original key of F minor for organ) has been beautifully arranged for trombone quartet in C minor by Mark LaFratta. It is probably Pachelbel?s second most famous work, after the Kanon in D. As is typical for a Ciacona (Chaconne), there is a short simple tune in triple meter over a repeating bass ostinato that provides a vehicle for variation, ornamentation, and melodic invention. It is somewhat similar to a passacaglia. There is a passage or two that even have hints of Bach's great Passacaglia, which didn't appear for many years in the future.



Pachelbel's Ciacona states an opening theme followed by 22 variations, the last of which is an almost exact repeat of the opening theme.



This fantastic 8-minute arrangement is appropriate for advanced performers and is scored for: alto trombone, 2 tenor trombones, and a bass trombone

The Bordogni vocalises have been used by generations of low brass performers to learn legato technique, phrasing, endurance, bel canto style, expression, and breath control. They sound beautiful and are fun to play!

Ran Whitley has beautifully arranged another ten of the Melodious Etudes, numbers 41-50 for Trombone Quartet. All in bass clef, these are appropriate for intermediate to advanced performers. The entire melody line is in part 1 with parts 2, 3, and 4 accompanying.

James Pierpont's popular Christmas song Jingle Bells has been arranged for Trombone Quartet by Jeff Reynolds in a swing style with a special reference to the famous march American Patrol.

This fun arrangement of about 2 minutes in length is fun to perform and listen to. All in bass clef for moderately advanced performers.

Another trombone quartet arrangement from Andy Derrick, this is the classic James Bond Theme first heard in the film Dr. No. Includes score and parts for 4 trombones (in bass clef) and 3 Bflat treble clef bones and Eb Bass (tuba).

Unlike many of the free and illegal arrangements out there, this one has the right rhythms and all the little touches that you get with a professional and legitimate arrangement.

Bach?s great Chaconne from the Partita in d minor BWV 1004 for Violin was arranged for piano left-hand by Brahms and now has been arranged yet again for Trombone Quartet by Phil Brink. This 8-minute work is appropriate for advanced performers and will make a great addition to any recital.

Jim Hopson has arranged a 16th Century Christmas Carol Medley for Trombone Quartet. The three carols are:

Bring a Torch, Jeanette, Isabella - Lo' How a Rose E'er Blooming - Coventry Carol

There are touches of jazz chording and rhythmic stylings throughout, adding a bit of mystery to the 16th Century flavors.

The medley is about 2 1/2 minutes in length and appropriate for advanced performers.

Ryan Diefenderfer's clever arrangement of the Traditional Christmas carol God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen for Trombone Quartet begins as a Bass Trombone feature ballad with accompanying jazz chords. Then it ramps up to a jazz waltz giving all parts a good workout.

This almost 4-minute work is appropriate for advanced performers.

The digital sound track is a rough guide to who this arrangement sounds  

Asturias or Leyenda (Legend) named by the composer is a 6-minute work originally written in 1892 for the Piano as part of a three-movement suite entitled Chants d'Espagne. The work is actually best known in its very popular guitar rendition.

The music is in the Andalusian flamenco style A-B-A with a malagueña as the B section.

Karl Hinterbichler has worked some technical magic with his new arrangement for Trombone Quartet. Advanced performers will have a great time working out this mesmerizing piece of music.

Beethoven's great chamber music is second to none, however, there are very few instances where the Trombone as an instrument can fit into the style of the music. With the Scherzo from String Quartet, Op. 18, No. 4, arranger Kevin Dombrowski has found the perfect fit. A quartet of trombonists at the advanced level will love performing this wonderful five minutes of music.
