i would say this class falls pretty much in the mediocre range. subject matter is pretty interesting but he certainly is not a lecturer and does enjoy pointing out his juliard education. some parts of his exams are tough, but its probably one of the better ones to take to get your arts class out of the way
I truely liked Arm. I thought he was a great teacher in the aspect that he loved the area he taught in. He was so into music that just by listening to him talk with such compassion, you were interested. I think the class was easy. He gave you enough breaks. He put the notes online. The tests were word for word from the notes. He described the music to you, he played in enough. Yes, although I did not go to class all the time because it tended to fall asleep and I thought it was very rude, especially to a teacher that loves what he does. If you need to take a gen-ed in the theatre make sure you take music 191 with Arm. He can be boring but he is a great guy and I think I actually appreciate classical music a little more now.

Arm is a great professor. This class is a pretty easy A. Arm really loves teaching and that becomes apparent after only one lecture. This is actually one of the most relaxing classes I've taken at Uconn. Overall Arm is the nicest guy, an easy grader and he gives you a lot of chances to get an A+ in this class.

This class is so insanely easy, and the guy is probably the most cheerful professor i've ever encountered at UCONN. The only thing I dislike about the class is it can be very boring at times. A great teacher though.
