Group description
Muscari (Grape Hyacinth) are all-round flowers: Muscari are excellent as cut flowers, when planted in rockgardens, beds, borders, under shrubs, and trees, and can be used for indoor forcing. Muscari are often grown as underplanting for tulips and daffodils. Muscari flower spikes make a good contrast to the rounder shapes of those larger flowers.

Blue Magic
“Blue Magic” is a Level 1 trio intended to be taught entirely by rote. If the teacher chooses, she can begin to teach rhythmic values of quarter and eighth notes with this piece as well. This piece involves three ostinato patterns, one in each part. They are layered on top of each other then one-by-one they are changed to a percussion part until the end. Teach part 2 to the entire class first performing with teacher playing parts 1 and 2 together. Introduce other parts moving I finger to string 1 for guitar part 1. When the students are confident with each part, split the class into parts and switch them accordingly after performances.
Guitar 1 will begin with simple open E’s with index finger on string 1 and thumb on string 2. This will be the first time elementary students execute index stroke in the right hand. See tutorial video 3a. Adjust the tempo based on this part. Assess how fast the students can comfortably play part 1 together and set your tempo accordingly.
Guitar 2 will have index on string 2 and thumb on string 3. Guitar 2 begins with left hand 4th finger on fret 3 of the second string, shifting back with 2nd finger to C# and then open. If any student struggles with any version of this left hand fingering, feel free to adjust it as the overall goal of this piece is position setup, right hand stroke, good tone, and to build enthusiasm for playing together.
Guitar 3 will get set up with index on string 3 and thumb on string 4. They will play four D’s, four A’s, and eight E’s legato and with good tone. Perform measures 1-12 first, layering each ostinato with repeats and dynamics (gradual crescendo throughout). When you are satisfied with this performance, move on to the percussion parts in 13-20.
Percussion part 1:
Students will hold their right hand flat with palm facing the bridge of the guitar. They will lightly tap the bridge with the flat fingers stopping their hand on the bridge with each tap to create a bass drum sound in quarter note rhythm.
Percussion part 2:
Students will lay their left hand fingers across all six strings in the middle of the fret board. It is important that students do not squeeze at all so that pitches will not sound. Students then strum down through all strings with the outside nail of the index finger, moving from the elbow. Students should move quickly through the string creating a short raking sound. The final measure is the same as guitar part 1.
Percussion part 3:
This percussion is the same as guitar part 1 and only used in the final measure for a dramatic drum sound at the end.
Optional chord accompaniment: If you or any of your students are familiar with first position chords, perform the appropriate chord Dsus2, A, and E with the corresponding bass note to fill out the sound of the ensemble.
The audio recording for this selection was performed by members of the Austin Classical Guitar Youth Orchestra Iris Rentaria, James Snyder, and Aidan Suskic, engineered by ACGYO member and ACG intern Lennox Kolics, and recorded at Chez Boom Audio in Austin, Texas, which generously donated studio space, equipment, and expert guidance.
As Timmy walked deeper into the woods, he noticed a peculiar sparkle in the distance. Intrigued, he followed the shimmering light until he reached a beautiful, enchanting glade. In the center of the glade stood a group of magical sponsors - beings with mystical powers willing to grant Timmy's deepest desires.
Excitement and trepidation filled Timmy's heart as he approached the group of magical sponsors. Each sponsor possessed a unique power, ranging from telekinesis to shape-shifting, making Timmy's decision even more challenging. However, it was clear that only one sponsor could be chosen. Timmy contemplated his desires – should he wish for super strength, the ability to fly, or perhaps the power to heal others? With so many possibilities, Timmy realized that the choice he was about to make would shape his future forever. After much thought, Timmy decided to ask for the power of understanding and empathy. He believed that by understanding others and seeing the world from their perspective, he could make a positive difference and bring happiness to those around him. This sincere desire resonated with one magical sponsor, who bestowed upon Timmy the power to understand and empathize with every living being he encountered. From that moment on, Timmy's life transformed. He connected with people on a deeper level, offering support and encouragement. He helped resolve conflicts and spread kindness wherever he went. Timmy's ability to understand others opened doors to new friendships and opportunities for personal growth. But Timmy soon realized that his power came with great responsibility. He witnessed the pain and hardships that people faced, and it was up to him to bring hope and change. With his newfound power, Timmy became an advocate for the marginalized, fighting for their rights and making their voices heard. Timmy's journey was not always easy. There were times when he felt overwhelmed by the weight of the world's problems. However, his unwavering determination and belief in the power of understanding kept him going. With each encounter, Timmy learned valuable lessons and grew into a compassionate and wise individual. Ultimately, Timmy's adventure with the magical sponsors taught him that true power lies not in superhuman abilities but in understanding and empathy. By embracing these qualities, Timmy transformed not only his own life but also the lives of those around him. Timmy's story serves as a reminder to each of us that we have the power to make a difference, to understand others, and to spread kindness. Through empathy, we can create a better world where everyone feels seen and valued. Let Timmy's journey inspire us all to be magical sponsors in our own lives – granting understanding and empathy to those who need it most..
Reviews for "Timmy's Magical Education: Learning the Ways of his Sponsors"
1. John - 1/5 stars
I found "Timmy and the magical sponsors" to be incredibly boring and uninspiring. The plot was predictable and the characters lacked depth. The writing style was dry and lacked any sort of imagination. I could hardly finish the book as it failed to capture my attention and failed to deliver an interesting story.
2. Sarah - 2/5 stars
"Timmy and the magical sponsors" had potential, but it fell short in many ways. The storyline was confusing and poorly developed, making it difficult to follow. The characters were one-dimensional and lacked any relatability. Additionally, the pacing was off, with some parts dragging on while others felt rushed. Overall, it was a disappointment and I wouldn't recommend it.
3. Michael - 1/5 stars
I regret picking up "Timmy and the magical sponsors". The writing was juvenile and lacked sophistication. The dialogue was cliché and unrealistic. The plot was unoriginal and offered nothing new or exciting. I felt like I was reading a poorly written fanfiction instead of a professionally published book. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone looking for quality literature.
4. Emily - 2/5 stars
"Timmy and the magical sponsors" had an interesting concept, but it failed to live up to its potential. The execution was poor, with awkward and stilted writing that made it difficult to engage with the story. The characters felt flat and lacked depth, making it hard to connect with them. The story felt rushed and lacked proper development, leaving me feeling unsatisfied by the end. It had its moments, but overall, it fell short.
