Su Tan

As a non-Music major/minor, I took this class purely out of curiosity and to distance myself from my usual STEM classes. She is extremely passionate about chamber music and it's really fun to be in class with her. For this class, you need to attend 3 concerts in order to write 3 response papers (very easy) and the rest of the grade comes from your final performance. You have to try extremely hard not to get an A, so if you play a chamber music instrument, I highly recommend taking this class.

Su is very passionate about music and pushing students to move out of their comfort zones. If you take this class, be prepared to write some pieces that are really weird! This class definitely broadened the horizons of what I thought music could be, and I think going into very experimental techniques taught me a lot about how to make more traditional styles of music exciting. As long as you participate in class and take risks with your compositions, you'll be fine in this class.

Su is really passionate about music, and if you are engaged, she can really push you into exploring new and creative ways of making music. While course content may not seem applicable at first, the discussions you carry out of the course are very valuable for broadening perspectives and experimenting as an artist.
