Best conductor I have ever had the privilege to play under. Professor Teeple is one of the most musically knowledgeable people out there. He knows how to bring the best sound out of an ensemble, and the pieces he chooses for us to play are always exceptional. You will not be disappointed.Rate My Professors ↗

Professor Teeple is such an inspiring and thoughtful conductor. He is able to give each section thoughtful feedback and works with the ensemble exceptionally. He keeps the level of music accountable, while still making the class atmosphere receptive, encouraging, boyant, and down right fun.Rate My Professors ↗

Teeple is one of the best conductors I've had. My favorite part is that he has massive respect for his students. He always works with us, not on top of us. He asks for our musical input, and trusts that we'll put in the work. He always has the business and housekeeping stuff taken care of before class so that we can just focus on making music.Rate My Professors ↗

Been playing music for about 13 years now and he is honestly one of the best conductors I've ever had. 10/10 would take concert band again. He chooses hard music, but then again it is a college level band so that is to be expected.Rate My Professors ↗

Although it may not feel like it at first, especially for non-music majors, but being part of a music ensemble means being part of a family. Scott Teeple does an excellent job of making sure every one of his students knows they're cared for the by the UW music community, even if they're not majoring in music.Rate My Professors ↗
