Curriculum? It did not run as disclosed on the website. When asked about it to prepare for exams or performances, that's where they told the students, "Just do it." The place where a fourth-grade jazz piano major student can't even play the bossanova rhythm. And it's the Maastricht Conservatory that says, "Who cares?"

There has never been a class that provides a syllabus for three years there. Rather, if you ask for such a thing, it is a place that treats you as a strange student. One of the professors here asks students why they came here to learn jazz and asks them to go and ask someone who knows what jazz is. Shockingly, he is a professor in the jazz department.

Don't put forward ridiculous "professionality" to make video promotional materials look plausible, but pay attention to whether the professor is properly evaluating whether it is really valuable as an educational institution or meets the criteria for graduation.
