concert choir should be good. But it's not. This comes back to BT. She's late and disorganized. She blames everyone else for her problems and mistakes. My teacher loved her in the 1990s but she is not the same teacher now. If I had a choice in my schedule I wouldve sang in a different group.

I really wanted to like her. But she has no respect for snyone else's time. This semester we did 2 songs with professors and she was late to their rehearsals. It was embarrassing.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Knowledgeable and exacting, funny and caring. Runs rehearsals fairly efficiently. I've been in many choirs (including a major symphony chorus) & BT has been one of my favorite directors. Expects a lot from students & often programs too large a volume of music to learn comfortably, but we usually figure it out. Had her for 3 yrs of Concert Choir.

Professor Taylor is great. She is kind toward her students unless you are chatty. She definitely knows her stuff. Often she is late to choir and the grad students start on warm ups. She often misplaces her music. But she is always very funny and upbeat and has great feedback musically. Does require a lot of time tho and expects choir to be priority

Professor Taylor is incredibly knowledgeable, approachable, witty, funny, and inspirational. She makes choir a joy and time flies in her class!
