Moonlighters Big Band

Musical Director

James Bebbington

Hi I'm James or more commonly known as Bebs, and I am a fourth year physics student. And no I didn't make a mistake, I really am in fourth year; so when I'm not too busy fighting off the onset of athritis, I'll be conducting Moons this year. Having been a member of Moons for the previous 46 years I thought it would be nice to give something back. I'm sure we're in for a fantastic year!

Manager

Tom Peterken

Tom Peterken is continuing as manager of Moonlighters Big Band this year, having thoroughly enjoyed fulfilling the role last year. He thinks he can play trombone, and has been a member of both Moonlighters and the Wind Orchestra. As a third year physics student, he may not be seen around the music department as much as others on the committee, but he is always welcoming to any contact to alleviate his suffering from the lonely depths of lab work. He enjoys pretending he's a music student sometimes you see. Tom will be happy to answer any questions about the band, including the audition process.

Although primarily a saxophonist, Matt plays his clarinet from time to time and is this year helping to conduct several small ensembles, as well as being the BlowSoc treasurer. He spends many of his hours around the music department, providing a welcome and friendly face whilst arguing with the other students about the strength of his accent.
