This was a wonderful class! It met all of my expectations and was exactly what I wanted from an online course. I learned so much and feel less intimidated while listening to classical music.

Really nice course! Thanks very much for all the work the personnel have done.

The only one minor problem is the quality of the video, especially of the audio file. It will be much better experience if the sound files are clearer.

Excellent panorama of classical music.

I specially like the lesson about Mozart and the "Dark side of Mozart", and what was said about the social evolution of the musicians.

A great course. Perfect for beginner. I really enjoyed the journey of Western classical music from the Middle Ages to the present day.

Thank you very much. I learned a lot.

Muy buen curso, aunque, en mi opinión, sería bueno incluir más preguntas con audio en los quizes para evaluar más la parte auditiva y no tanto el recordar datos.

Very informative and helpful in learning how to listen to classical music as well as what to listen for when you are attending a musical concert.

A great course. The Wikimedia Commons material was a little low tech and not always connected to the lecture (e.g., the diagram on the ear).

A nice guide to classical music. I find the quizes too easy and too easy to do again until you get 100%.

simply wonderful, but hated his gregorian chant bit. as well assumes you know a bit about music theory.
