Tico Tico

Reel · 4/4 · B minor

Tico Tico is a well-known Brazilian choro and reel composed by Zequinha De Abreu, featuring a lively 4/4 meter and set in the key of B minor. The piece is characterized by its fast, syncopated rhythm and playful, birdsong-inspired melody that demands nimble fingerwork and virtuosity from performers. Originally published in the early twentieth century under the title Tico-Tico no Fubá, it eventually became an international standard popularized by recordings and film appearances during the mid-twentieth century.
