Please make sure you read the syllabus carefully and make a note of concert report deadlines and exam dates. Make sure you set aside time to attend the required concerts. If you know that you'll have a problem attending the concerts than you should consider another class. Experiencing live classical and jazz music is an important part of this class and missing the concert reports will make it impossible to pass with a C or better. My contact information is in the syllabus and on the home page of this site.
Attendance and weekly lab assignments are a significant part of your grade. You will be required to attend the lab each week in Holt 105. The listening assignments are important because there will be audio questions on all exams. It's a good idea to follow the listening guides in your textbook when they are available.
IMPORTANT: Please do not be late for class. Often times I lock the door 5 when class starts.

Student ticket prices are available at the Atherton box office. Please don't wait until the last minute to purchase tickets. Concerts typically have a lecture about the music before the concert. You will enjoy the music more if you plan on attending the pre-concert lectures.
