band was way too easy. if you're any good at music, it's the easiest thing you'll ever do. admittedly, big waste of time. if you like meeting people and hanging out with em outside of rehearsal, good way to meet other people with same musical interests. otherwise... find another ensemble if you wanna get better.

Dr. Holland is a great teacher. He's very understanding and truly cares about his students. I got into a pretty bad wreck and he allowed me to go on the overnight trip without having to march and didn't hold me accountable for it. He's a wonderful teacher!

Can be hard to get along with- very one sided and tempermental. If you catch him on a good day, or if you are with someone he likes/thinks is cute, he can be a great teacher. Not so much otherwise.

Don't let all of these "band nerd" responses fool you. Mr. Holland needs to get with the program and make people accountable for their preparedness whether they are majors or not. He lets people get by with no effort whatsoever. The people giving him such good ratings are prime suspects of this. He definitely needs to expect more of students.

In marching band, he is very one sided and won't change his views, you better agree or be unliked. But when it comes to the symphonic band, he is a GREAT conductor, pushs us to the level he knows we can be. Very funny at that. Love him

Comment:
The marching band has gone far, far downhill during his tenure. Poor personal skills with people that have an opinion other then his. Nice guy, but extremely fake. If you want him to like you, you had better agree with EVERYTHING he has to say.

Best music director I've ever had. Very great person. Everything else I could say would just be repeating the list of compliments below. Very non-threatening which makes playing music easier and more enjoyable.

Very kind. Passionate about his music. He was very understanding about everything. I was a loner in the band, but he always talked to me, listened to my problems and request, and gave me complements. He helped me stay in the band as long as I did.

Dr. Holland is AWESOME! When I was pregnant he worked out a deal with me so that I could keep my scholarship since I wasn't able to march. Dr. Holland has always been there for his students and is quick to hand out compliments when they are due. He's an all around great guy.
