Comment:
Dr. Murray is an excellent teacher, really hard class but crystal clear expectations and very fair. You have to work hard but you learn so much, and he does a great job making meaningful connections and bringing music history to life. (note: I don't like history in general, but I loved music history)

I wish I could take many more classes with DrM. Best teacher I've had, and I've had some amazing ones in my time. Believe it or not, he'll make you love Medieval/Renaissance music if you keep an open mind. If you have the chance to take a class with him, don't pass it up.

Comment:
Thought Murray was a great professor (and quite funny, too!). Course happened to be very fun(going against my original thoughts). Would take this for group A. Class is intellectually stimulating; never knew about this aspect of history. Recommended, your grade will reflect the effort put into the class.

Comment:
If you're a music major you have to take this class. If you're not a music major and are considering it make sure you already have a strong music foundation and that you want to do a lot of work. If not, don't take this class. He'll says otherwise, but he obviously thinks this is the most important class you will ever take and assigns tons of work.

Okay, Murray definitely knows his stuff, so I recommend him as a professor...however, if you are trying to fulfill a breadth req., do NOT take this class! I am not a music major, and it's way more trouble than it's worth. Murray is a nice guy- HARD tests!
