One of my least favorite professors at UD. Taking him for a second writing. He knows his stuff but is extremely arrogant and rude. He is very picky and likes everything to be a certain way... His. 2 exams and 3 writing assignments.

I LOVE Dr. Conrad!! His class was easily my favorite that I have taken at UD. He knows absolutely everything about musical theater and is really passionate about it. He explains things very clearly and is great about giving help and answering questions. He is a bit goofy but it's part of his charm. Pay attention in class and it's not hard at al

He has been teaching for ages, but everyone loves him. I have never heard a bad word about him. He cracks me up when you come back from break and he thinks you will sing something poorly. He bites his knuckle and when you sing correctly he loosens back up.

Dr. Conrad is a nice guy, but very meticulous particular. He'll automatically like you if you know your service songs. Very easy class. He gets excited when you can sing diminished chords.. It's cute.

Dr. C is the best. He knows how to make what could be a really dreadful class entertaining, while still getting stuff done.

Dr. Conrad is quite the character. He acts like a 5-year old a lot of the time, but overall he's a nice guy. He makes ear training fun if you're on his good side

Not a difficult class at all. Class consists of listening to art song performances. Weekly quiz tests information learned during the week, short and not too difficult, but do study. Exams are mostly listening type, requires alot of studying listening to examples, but can be easy. Mid-semester paper not too difficult. Final project very easy.

The best class I've ever taken! Dr. C makes it so much fun and I learned so much. Classes were enjoyable and fun- you get to watch clips and listen to songs from musicals- what could be better? Dr. C knows his stuff and is a wonderful teacher!

A little strange, but definately knows what he is doing. The class is not overly difficult, and it is not true that it's hard for non-music majors. It can be a little awkward to be around him. Bring up music theatre or The Amazing Race and you'll never have another issue with him. Do practice outside of class.

This is an amazing class. His love for musical theatre is apparent, and he is one of the most knowledgable professors i've ever had--an expert on everything. He is a critical grader, but it only makes you a better writer, and he is incredibly consistent. If you like musical theatre (whether performing or just watching) take this class!!

Comment:
Definately a creepy guy but seriously, you dont need to be a singer to pass. It's simple stuff. The signing can get tough, but just practice and you'll get an A. The ear-training is a sinch, he won't go on until everyone is comfortable with the material. Nothing to worry about, but he is a bit weird

the most unbelievalby weirdest person i've ever met, but i guess it comes along with being a genius. he is one of the smartest people i know. has incredible knowledge of music in general. very cocky and very awkward to be around, but he is a good teacher. practice intervals outside of class.

Comment:
Class is difficult if you arent a vocal major. He can be pretty awkward, mean, and cocky. Doesnt offer much practice and assumes you'll be able to do a lot of the content before you start the class. Hard for females with a limited singing range.

If you don't get it in the beginning you're not going to get it for the whole 4 semesters. Watch out for harmonic dictation, he always throws in old chords you're not thinking about.

An easy A for a music major (and probably even if you're not). Creepy pauses and awkward stares a given.

Pretty good teacher overall and wants everyone to do well. A little strange though. If you have a good ear, there is nothing to worry about.
