Comment:

He has so much real world experience and has so many interesting things to say. never asks more of you than he knows you can handle. explains everything perfectly but if you don't understand he will go over it 30 times until you get it-super helpful. really kind and treats everyone as close friends and is really respectful.

This prof, is different in a good way, he will try very hard to make all he's students understand he's course. If U have a question, totally go for it, he's super fun. Honestly SPEAKING understanding music does not come easy to me, all i had to do was play attention go to class and ask whenever i felt confused.I ENDED UP WITH A GOOD GRADE :D

This guys the man regardless, ask a question and he answers it in perfect clarity. Anyone else who is not recommending him just didn't try in his class, you do his work you get an easy A simple as that. He strays a little off topic but you learn regardless and he's so easy to work with and reviews constantly, so it doesn't matter. Awesome guy.

Comment:

Dont even think about it....... Music history is boring!!! most of the time he will talk about his life and stupidity. hard grader. expects you to write a paper that a person getting a Ph.D should write. No matter what you do, if he dose not like you he will give you a bad grade.

I don't recommend him at all. very unorganized. Does not stay on topic in class. not very clear and specific about how you will be graded in the class. not a good professor and his lectures are not related to the test.

Alright, here's the real deal. He is honestly a great professor and well rounded person. He has 3 PhDs and makes learning simple and relatable for everyone. He does however give a TON of papers to write (5, 3-4 pgs each) but you learn from them and grow as a writer. The Midterm & Final are extremely easy if you simply pay attention in class. Take!!
