From the beginning hour of this course, this course has me wanting to continue. The love of this professor for music is so clear and I want to learn more and more from him. I am so very glad that I found this course on this particular, passionate and haunting aria of such a great composer.
Understandable and instructional. Great instructor.
I learn and love classical piano, but I wanted to learn also popular music and how to manage chord progressions.
This is the only course I found on the net which answers my wishes. And it has really a big value. To learn song composition and improvisation from my point of view as student of classical piano is a unique experience. Hope Dr Janzen will make more of these courses in the future.
