Macapá is a popular tune originally for small jazz/latin ensemble and now brought to big band in style! Featuring a sunny, cheerful melody, fun lines for numerous instruments, and a toe-tapping samba beat, Macapá is sure to put a smile on everybody's face and get plenty of bodies on the dance floor.
All parts are contained in the PDF file download after the score. There are also a few other optional parts (a clarinet part + an auxiliary percussion guide).
The flute part is also optional, but highly recommended! A flute cue appears in Alto 1 part for the opening riff in case you do not have a dedicated flute player.
