    Grade: A+

    A lot of the homework was just doing readings, but it was definitely a lot more than expected. The main assignments are concert reports, and the final project is either a research project or an interviews project, where you interview a musician. Weekly quizzes increased in difficulty each week, so towards the end it was definitely fairly hard.
