CollegeI love him
Easy for a student with prior music experience, but a tough class for someone with none. Overall, the class is pretty straightforward. I had a great TA who was very accessible outside of class. Attendance is mandatory and is graded for both lectures and sections which can help boost your grade. Weekly assignments which are relevant to lecture.
This professor is so nice but the lectures are mandatory and insufferable. I did choir all of high school and can read music and I was literally lost in this class. Attendance is worth some of your grade, and there is a ton of homework. Spare yourself and take Music 15 instead.
This is the second course I've had with Professor Jurkowski. His classes are very easy and he wants you to succeed. I recommend his courses for GEs, even if the lectures can be boring at times.
Couldn't find the right course code, took MUS4 and MUS10C. A good, clear professor, discusses both theory and history in a way easy to understand. A good sense of humor, keeps class interesting.
Very accessible outside of class and very approachable. Just not a very helpful professor, assigns a lot of homework as if we don't have other courses we are taking, and then grades very harshly on it. Doesn't post any lectures, so if you miss class your are simply screwed. Just overall doesn't give you the tools you need to succeed normally.
