Tico-Tico is the most famous piece written by Brazilian musician and composer Zequinha de Abreu.

This arrangement by Steve Marsh can be played as a quartet with one player per part or expanded into a larger ensemble. It includes a variety of strumming patterns and guitar percussion, and the interaction between parts and use of melody in octaves make this 2 minute long piece very enjoyable to perform. We think it works so well it could almost have been conceived for guitars!
