Assessments

Two listening quizzes, midterm exam, final exam, final essay, two tutorial presentations, and a final project (concert curation or post-1850s music writing).

Teaching

Professor is described as very nice and engaging. However, Professor Joyce's departure in the 2019-2020 review suggests variability in teaching quality.
