Reviews of professor Derek Volkmann

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof. Volkmann loves music and it shows! Be prepared for LONG and somewhat boring lectures. You will listen to music from all time periods - a lot. He is fair and likes participation, but this is NOT an easy A class. Material for tests are covered in the lectures, study guides and the book. Pay attention and participate in class and you'll pass.

If you're looking to take music for an easy A, this isn't your class. HOWEVER, for the amount of information that is given, his lectures cover what needs to be covered. And he provides the info needed to get good grades. You just have to listen. The lectures are long and boring, but it can be an easy class if you put in the work.
