Dave Sterner

David Sterner has been a fixture in the Ohio music scene as a musician and educator since the early 1990s. Mr. Sterner is a 1992 graduate of Indiana University's Jazz Studies program, where he studied under renowned jazz educator David Baker. Sterner has performed with such nationally-known artists as David Sanborn, Phil Woods, Louis Bellson, Jon Faddis, Harry Connick Jr., Aretha Franklin, The Temptations and Tony Bennet.

Dave’s group performs a wide range of musical styles, including the blues, swing, funk, and Latin jazz. A large part of the repertoire comes from the 1960s soul jazz era when composers such as Horace Silver, Cannonball Adderley, Lee Morgan, and Freddie Hubbard dominated the scene. The group also performs songs by such contemporary composers as Joshua Redman, Bob Berg, and Michael Brecker and is composing its own original music and reinterpreting classic charts in a more modern style.
