Comment:

Grades are 100% attendance - that's the only factor in your grade. Show up, don't use your phone, and in 4 semesters you have a free Aesthetics credit. Class is boring, and University Chorus is a community group, so all of the old people are really flat (but can sight read really well), and it doesn't sound great. Only classical music.

Thorough, knowledgeable, excellent teacher, always available, a little unclear on when assignments are due. I recommend both Borton & the course - Choral Arranging.

I LOVE Dr. Borton!! He is my favorite teacher here at BIng. He has been a great help in giving me information for the future. He is an awesome teacher with a ton of experience in his craft of conducting.

Comment:

musicality in women's choir was pathetic and disappointing and the TA was horrible. it was heartbreaking to come to college and realize that my high school choir was 100 times better.

great conductor. chair of music dept. worked under robert shaw. his conducting class is a little difficult because you feel disjointed only rehersing so little of a piece.
