This Grade 3 concert band arrangement of "Copacabana" is fantastic for school and community ensembles. Richard L. Saucedo's scoring offers clear, well-engraved parts that are easy to read, fostering good sight-reading habits. The exciting Latin beat provides an engaging challenge for rhythmic precision, particularly for the percussion section, making it an excellent teaching piece for all sections.

As a conductor, I appreciate how this Grade 3 arrangement of "Copacabana" effectively translates Manilow's hit for concert band. The orchestration provides a rich, balanced texture with engaging lines for all sections, particularly the active percussion. It truly captures the song's energy and allows for a dynamic performance, ensuring a cohesive and exciting sound from the ensemble.

Playing Barry Manilow's "Copacabana" with our community band is an absolute blast! The Grade 3 level is challenging but very achievable for a weekend player, and Richard Saucedo's arrangement makes us sound fantastic. The hot Latin beat and steamy melodies really come through, making it feel just like the record. A truly enjoyable and exciting piece.

A solid Grade 3 arrangement of Barry Manilow's classic, perfect for community concerts and events. The full set of parts ensures all instruments are covered, and the arrangement is standard enough to be picked up quickly. The percussion workout is a highlight, adding that authentic 'hot Latin beat.' While comprehensive, a treble clef Tuba part would be a handy option for some players.

This is a brilliant piece of music well arranged for Concert Band. I have been conducting concert bands now for 30 years the first 15 being with a youth band (Crossgates Youth Band) and now with an adult band (Reston Concert Band) and I have realised that the subtitle of Young Concert Band really should not discourage adult band use as the arrangement ensures a full sound at a Grade 3 or equivalent skill level. The only downside with the parts supplied is the absence of Tuba in treble clef and Eb Tenor Horn parts in the pack (otherwise I would have given 5 stars).
