Ms. Bob at her desk.

Welcome to Fall 2019!

Thank you for your interest in my classes. I like to think they're enjoyable, fun even. I’ve taught at City College for a long time and some of the jokes you'll hear have taken me 20 years to perfect. Sign-up. Bet you’ll be smiling while you're learning.

During Fall 2019 I’m teaching two subjects:

A survey of the diverse roots of American music up to the creation of rock ‘n’ roll. This is a hybrid course, half taught online and half face-to-face on the Ocean Campus.

Multiple levels from beginning note-reading to playing more advanced pieces in small groups. Taught at the Mission Center on Monday nights.
