Comment:
Very knowledgeable, but has too big of an ego to be the best teacher he could be. He preaches accepting other peoples ideas because everything works for some not all, but gets angry if you dont 100% take everything he says or question anything. That will make him not like you, which will affect how the helpfulness of his feedback and your grade.

Comment:
Professor Fisher is a great conductor. He keeps all of his musicians engaged during all rehearsals, and picks a wide variety of great music to play each concert cycle. He's seemed to open up a lot more this semester. If you have the chance to be in Symphonic Band, definitely do it. Make sure you stay on his good side and you'll enjoy the class!

Comment:
Probably one of the most influential teachers I've ever had. He is tough, and if he doesn't think you're prepared (and you WILL need to prepare on your own), he absolutely will tear you apart. But he does have your best interest at heart (I think) and will give you amazing advice and critiques. He's only an ass if you don't try.

Comment:
One of the most influential music professors of my 6 years of college. If you give him 100% you won't be disappointed. He took the time to sit down one on one with me multiple times just to chat about my future and what I could improve on. Incredible knowledge of how to lead an ensemble and programming. Wonderful conducting professor. Just awesome.

He can be a hard-ass but if you show up prepared he can be genuinely helpful and insightful. Will take time to answer questions from students if they show they are actually interested in the topic and in improving.

Has no interest in anyone's opinion but his own. only witnessed one death threat so far. tells stupid jokes then stands there grinning waiting for someone to laugh. he does have an incredible knowledge of music, though.

advice to get on his good side: sit down, shut up, don't question his authority, and do exactly what he tells you to do or else all hell breaks loose. And don't use the words "cell phone" within 50 feet of him.

He can be rude, but that is only if you are not prepared. I think he is a very professional teacher. His knowledge of music is unbelievable.

What an arrogant ass. Vague expectations combined with totally unprofessional behavior result in a teacher who spends little time teaching and a lot of time trying to humiliate students in class.
