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..:-)

Difficult but very thorough, I feel my understanding of music to much deeper now. I definitely found rereading and rewatching the course material super helpful to complete the course. Thank you!
