Comment:

The best part of his classes is that he allows students to drop one of there lowest test grades. He doesn't give many exams for his Analysis and History European Art Music I class as well as some of the other classes that I had taken with him the past. So this helps a lot. Celotto 's lectures are always engaging and he wants students to succeed.

Best professor/teacher I have ever had. Had him for 4 semesters and although you do have to go to class, pay attention, and do your work he is great at teaching and always makes sure everyone understands before moving forward. He also makes it easy to stay focused and make class fun

Great teacher! has many ways of explaining the same thing to help everyone understand. Lively lecture with plenty of examples. He won't care if you skip a few classes as long as you know what you're doing. your grade depends primarily upon very straight-forward tests and he tells you exactly what you need to study.

Comment:

I'm not a music major, and this class was awesome! I do love Rock & Roll though, and Al was the best possible teacher for this class. He gets down to basics, plays every style of music, and teaches you things about the artists you can't help but be shocked. The textbook was cheap, too. Take Al, no matter what the class!!

Great instructor. Judges his pace of teaching off of the class, so no one is left behind. Will go over anything you ask him to.

Al is by far one of the best teachers I have ever known. You can tell he truly loves teaching and is very passionate about his students. He wants everyone to succeed and understand the material.

Al is fantastic! he tries so hard to make sure all his students are on the same page...He is just a great teacher...and he should come out with his book on theory with all of his pictures and his little jokes..... "river of life"... "shoot you now"...."there can be only one"... and the list goes on forever! He is just an amazing teacher!
