A really friendly, intelligent guy--a Harvard graduate. But he always singles people out during rehearsal, which is really bad for self esteem. He can't keep a steady beat either, and he chooses music that is too demanding for students. I understand that he is passionate about what he does, but he really needs to lower his expectations for students. | |
I was expecting an fascinating, fascinating class. I was wrong. Nobody ever went because it was just so dull. I fell bad for him, because he has a lot of passion in what he does and is a friendly guy, but no one really feels the same way. Lumps up huge amounts of information into just 3 exams. This class was a big regret, wish I took something else. | |
WORST CLASS EVER GET OUT NOW! Very dull class so if your one of the few who go its nearly impossible to keep notes since your more focused on not falling asleep. exams way to difficult for a gen ed class. He expects that everyone is as interested as him in the material being covered. Can get extra credit by going to concerts, but still DO NOT TAKE!! | |
Wind Ensemble. simple A, but he can be rather rough, and can't keep a steady tempo. Tells hillarious stories occasionally. Music is generally loud, heavy, brassy things. For example, we're playing two paso dobles and a Russian symphonic dance at the upcoming concert. |
