My experience taking this course was better than I expected. I went in without much of a background in music theory, so at first some of the concepts felt unfamiliar. As the course went on, things started to connect, and I was able to understand how music is structured more practically. I appreciated that the course focused not just on definitions, but on how music is actually heard and experienced. It helped me recognize patterns like movement, phrases, and when something feels complete or unresolved. There were moments where I had to slow down and revisit ideas, but overall, the course felt manageable. By the end, I feel like I have a stronger understanding of music and can listen with greater awareness than before.
