During that year, Muczynski held a Ford Foundation grant to bring his music to the public schools in the Tucson area. The charming-yet-profound result was a narrated work along the lines of Andersen's The Ugly Duckling. Set in Arizona, Fuzzette is a hairless tarantula who assumes no one likes her for being different – until the handsome and charismatic Pancho falls in love with her for her individualism. Muczynski's musical setting has all the charm, elegance, and jazz underpinnings of his best-loved works for flute and for saxophone.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Theodore Presser","offers":[{"title":"Score \u0026 Set of Parts","offer_id":44833336557647,"sku":"114-41938","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Score \u0026 Set of Parts - Digital Download","offer_id":45242855948367,"sku":"114-41938D-PDF","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/98d0f24c64c8e8198d6ab0d6aafb0ce6.jpg?v=1773679656","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/products\/muczynski-fuzzette-the-tarantula-presser","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
