Mr. Jackoboice served as Assistant Director
of Bands at both Cornell University and the University of
Minnesota. He came to The University of Akron in 1967
where he served as Professor of Music and Director of Bands
for 20 years. From 1985 through 1987 he also served
as coordinator of the undergraduate music division in the
University's School of Music. One of the highlights
in the history of The University of Akron Bands came
when the Symphony Band made a highly successful concert
tour throughout Western Europe.
Mr. Jackoboice had served as conductor
at the Revelli International School of Music in Montreux/Glion,
Switzerland. He had also served as Dean of Music and
special guest conductor at the International Education Institute
at the University of Exeter, England. He had appeared
as guest conductor with several European orchestras and
concert bands.
In addition to his activities with bands,
Mr. Jackoboice had been active in the encouragement and
promotion of all music. It was his hope that musicians
could have a meaningful experience in all phases of music.
