Comment:

In a class setting this professor is great, as a marching band instructor this professor acts like a CHILD. He throws fits when people make mistakes because of instead of doing his job he throws work at everyone else.

Comment:

By far the best professor I've had at Furman. Bocook's Orchestration course is extremely thorough--covers everything you need to know about writing for winds, percussion, and strings. A "must-take" course.

Wow! He is one talented man! I am always so impressed with the way he can convey his music and ideas to the students. He treats us like equals instead of inferiors.
