The Boston music school is now offering music courses, online and free.

Here’s from their press release:

Berkleemusic, the world’s largest online music school and the continuing online education division of Berklee College of Music, has signed an agreement with Coursera, an organization that offers classes from top universities and professors for free, to develop four online courses with some of their most popular instructors. These free online courses will be available to students across the globe in Spring 2013. The four Massive Open Online Courses (known as MOOCs) that will be offered are: Jazz Improvisation with 6-time GRAMMY-winner Gary Burton, Music Production Basics with Loudon Stearns, Introduction to Guitar from Thaddeus Hogarth, and Songwriting with Pat Pattison.

Pretty cool.
