Su Tan

Su Tan is a great lecturer and she is very passionate about what she teaches. She can go on tangents and she sometimes isn't very clear on what her expectations are for course work, but her assignments are very doable, and the final was take home which was very nice. Also, a part of your grade consists of going to three concerts that Midd offers and writing a reflection about your experience in them, which is a very nice way to listen to live music during your semester.

Su is a very nice person. Also, it is clear, both from her credentials and lectures, that she is extremely knowledgeable. She is a wonderful flautist and composer, and clearly has an immense passion for music. I enjoyed her class very much. I learned a lot from her, much of which I still employ when listening to music.

This course is great for those who have specific pieces they would like to perform in a Chamber Music setting. However, without clear direction about what you want out of this class, it may be a disappointment. Su provides worthwhile coachings, but can be extremely hot/cold and inconsistent with her feedback. She is obviously brilliant and inspired, but I don't know how much value she provides as a professor to this class. Before taking this class, I would consider forming your own non-credit chamber group.
