Comment:
Nice, funny guy. Interesting class concept (history of jazz) made it fun. He's a bit slow but teaches pretty well. The 2nd/3rd tests get tricky because there's so much material to study, but if you remember names and song titles you'll be okay. 10 page research paper was awful and way harder than the rest of the class. Uses videos + props in class

Comment:
History of The Beatles sounds awesome, and is awesome. Great class, full of music and fun tidbits. I am not a music major, and the class is not focused to much on music theory, so i never felt lost. The papers are annoying, but there are only two so, get over it. Worth taking if you have the time!

Comment:
The history of rock and roll was not worthwhile. It was a CFA and CAS class that totally favored the music majors. His lectures were all over the place, and many things were left out. Expectations for papers were explained AFTER the papers were due. Test questions didn't make any sense. He grades easier than the TA's, but the class is not worth it.

Professor Yudkin is an AMAZING professor. Anyone would be lucky to have him. He is so cute and is always willing to help students. He is extremely easy to get in touch with, and I have never taken a more interesting and enriching class. I LOVE YOU YUDKIN

I earned my degree in 1988, and I still regard Dr. Yudkin as one of the best teachers I have ever had in ANY subject. I hope he is still teaching. If you are prepared for his class, you will learn a lot. If you are unprepared, you will suffer! Kind of like life.

Music of Jazz. Great professor! Definitely recommended for everybody!!! The paper(s) is(are) a ****, but if you BS your way through that, the rest is easy. Very engaging professor and you will have a lot of fun in class, so don't miss any!

Going into this class, I was completely uninterested in the topic, but Yudkin's wit and obvious interest in the subject made it by far my favorite class this semester, and perhaps in all of college. He is VERY knowledgeable on his topic (he wrote the book, after all), and his obvious enthusiasm sparks interest with the students. AMAZING professor!

One of the best classes I've taken at BU. The exams and papers aren't too tough, and Yudkin is always willing to help. Each class is interesting and fun, even at 9:30 AM. You will actually look forward to doing the homework (listening to music). Highly recommended.

He keeps class interesting with varying the content (movies, cds, even gramaphone!). His cheerfulness is a definite plus and makes getting up and to class worthwhile, especially since he's always willing to help you. Also, he has excellent taste in music.
