He's really passionate about India's culture and the classes he teaches but he's extremely unorganized and basically his 3 hr long class is just about his life in India also he was teaching us stuff that had nothing to do with music in India.

MUS22N . Marcus S L 5 Years Ago

MUS22N taught by Marcus Scott is an interesting elective. He gives you an amount of information about middle-east music theory but he would not test on it. I highly recommend the people who wants to learn an extra music intrument take this course.

MUS22N . Marcus S L 5 Years Ago

I took MUS 22N with him, which is a small course teaching an instrument. He is very nice and caring, and he is definitely high-level instrument player and a proficient of Arabic Music Theory. However sometimes he does not show up without providing a reason and cannot be contacted through e-mail, so it would be better if you ask him for his phone No

Professor Marcus is sooooo funny-the funniest instructor. Though sometimes unorganized, if you pay attention, you can learn a lot from his theory class. I like the way he teaches Pythagorean and just tuning system. He also brings many interesting instruments to lecture. The homework and exam are easy and straightforward. Highly recommended

MUS3C . Marcus S L 6 Years Ago

Prof Marcus is very old fashioned and his lectures can be a bit unorganized but if you go to his office hours and just have a conversation with him about his background and/or the course material, it clears a lot of it up. He is a very interesting professor with a non-traditional background. Great person to have a conversation with
