  • Comments: (From the Seacoast Jazz Society web) ?As the academic year draws to a close at the University of New Hampshire this year, so too does the long, notable career of David Seiler, the Universitys Director of Jazz Studies. Dave spent 52 years teaching music at the college level, 43 of them at UNH. The UNH Jazz Band, under the direction of Seiler, has performed on the SS Norway Jazz Cruise, the International Association of Jazz Educators, five European tours, and performances with numerous guest artists. The most recent CDs produced by the UNH Jazz Band, Monk and Then Some, the culmination of a two-year project with Clark Terry, and Dedicated to You, have received very positive reviews. His collaborations with Clark Terry have included performances of Duke Ellingtons Nutcracker Suite, Tone Parallel to Harlem, and The Sacred Concerts. Seiler is co-founder, along with colleague Robert Spevacek, of the University of Idaho-Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival and is co-coordinator of the UNH Traditional Jazz Series and the UNH-Clark Terry Jazz Festival which he founded in 1974.
