Very good course which hammers home the essentials.
Good enthusiastic lecturing and importantly on completion progressed onto Coursera Musicianship Specialisation which I have now almost completed

It was a very nice course. We were able to understand the basics of music theory and how the notations and chords work. Thank you so much to the entire staff of Edinburgh University and Coursera..:-)

it's a really great course; although they don't get into every detail that you would think you need,it's a pretty good overlook of the elementary of music theory.

I think week 3 and partially week 5 could've been implemented a bit better. but they did really well explaining basic music theory with the allocated time given.

The quizzes sometimes feel a little too difficult compared to the lectures that precede them, but other than that it's a really nice and comprehensive course

The beginning is good. The instructions are enjoyable. But from Week 4 onwards there is a sudden leap and the students are left with many unsolved issues.

A little bit steep demand curve regarding to what is offered in the lectures.
Well, well... The whole world knows that "they" are a little "thrifty" ;-)

The video tutorials were good, but for me it was not sufficient. However, the examinations were a lot helpful than the video lessons.

This was a pretty good course. It teaches you how to read sheet music. This wasn't exactly what I wanted, but I did learn a lot.

The course was interesting but I wanted to know more about theoretical characteristics for music in different eras and cultures

Apart from a steep increase of complexity somewhere around the third week, you still manage to learn a lot through this course.

Good introduction to music theory.
Final assignment tougher than expected.
You will need to do the extra reading and research.

Sometimes the explanations where a little to liitle. ALso, the german subtitles didn't really fit to what was actually said.

Great introduction to music theory. In some sections the layout of the course could be somewhat better.

the final exam (part 1 &2) is very difficult if we compare it with the others exams of each week

Challenging at times, but doable with effort, and quite rewarding upon success. Recommended.

Some of the exercises are too difficult for a beginner.
