Excellent course! Very well designed and systematically organised with useful materials. I have learnt a lot and gained confidence to continue my music path, Thank you Professor Edwards!

Really clear and useful introduction (or refresher) for basic harmony. The only thing I feel is missing is something on modulation as without this you're kind of 'stuck in first gear'.

This is a beautifully constructed course and the very first course I took through Coursera. It has a great flow and the Instructor guides us very carefully through the course content with thorough explanation. I learnt a lot and the instructor is the best harmony teacher. Thank you, it was amazing.

This is not only teaching the basics of composing a classical music but also widening your view over classical music and the way how you see them. Indeed, you can get your toolbox of composing them even if you have just finished learning the introduction to music theory.

This is an Amazing Course. Too Complete and i need to say that Peter E. gives all that he knows for this. I don't think in an near end... it's just the beginning of a great Adventure. Thanks So Much University of Singapore for give me the chance to Become Better.

This is an advanced in-depth course that will make you feel a real music theorist. Make sure you are fully familiar with the material of introductory courses in Music Theory and have no difficulty with reading chords and their inversions to make most use of it!

An excellent introduction to classical composition, which requires very little in prior knowledge in music theory. Prof Edwards' transcript is occasionally difficult to make coherent notes from, but the information is otherwise thorough and insightful.

Contains a lot of information for the short course time, but well worth taking even if you can't complete all of the work. It applies a lot of music theory, so consider it the hands-on practice for all of those theory lectures you might have taken.

Although this course is only an "introduction" to classical music composition, it offers quite a wide range of tools for composing music in the classical style, as well as assignments and guided exercises to help you master these tools.

Le cours est bien conçu et TB organisé. Le système d'exercices dirigés est très bien fait. Excellent système de correction par les pairs.
Suggestion : plus de commentaires/discussions et feedback pour les devoirs hebdomadaires W1-W5

It was very basic in my opinion, though very enjoyable and informative! I would love for there to be a more advanced version of this course in the future, also including some romantic era composition.

I was surprised how the divine Mozart can analytically be broken down into principles - at least initially - which make his actions accessible to you! Keep it up Prof. Dr. Edwards!

This was truly eye opening and not only for classical music composing - you can apply your knowledge from this course to many other styles as well! Can't recommend it enough!

Excellent introduction to common practice era harmony, also very nice introduction to periods, cadences, 4 part harmony and musical structure, excellent for any undergrad.

Having completed only two weeks I consider this is very good course. I wish there were more music composing courses like this and of such quality.

The course is very good. You will learn the basics about composing in the style of classical music. Like Mozart, Schubert, etc. Worth it.
