Hi! I’m Jack, a 4th year chemistry student and I am the president of the brass society after previously taking on the roles of treasurer and Beginners Brass coordinator. My favourite parts of the BrassSoc calendar are UniBrass (the interuniversity brass band contest), and the annual pudding social (involving eating pudding and watching Brassed Off). I play euphonium in the main band but have recently become partial to the bass trombone and BBb bass which I play in the Beginners Brass group.

Hi! I’m Hannah, a second year English and History student and Secretary for Brass Society this year. I primarily play the cornet but since coming to university, I have also enjoyed playing trumpet and flugelhorn with the Symphonic Brass ensemble and even a bit of tenor horn with the Beginners Brass group! The highlights of my time at BrassSoc so far have been a fabulous weekend away for Tri-Uni (our annual concert with Leeds and Durham), competing in my first ever UniBrass contest and of course, the many post-rehearsal trips to the Dirty Duck.

Hi, I’m Nick, a 4th year mathematics student. I’ve been playing percussion since I was eight, cornet since I was nine, and as of the start of my second year, hold the highly coveted position of sop player (the sexiest seat in the whole band) for the society. I also play trumpet/picc in Symphonic Brass, our auditioned dectet. When I’m not busy doing my degree, I enjoy programming, swimming, walking at night, playing table tennis, and rollerskating before concerts. I’m proud to be treasurer in my final year with the society.

Hiya! I’m Ellie, a third year Maths and Physics student and the societies Concert Manager. Originally I was a double reed player, but started brass in second year and, after a (very) brief stint in beginners, joined the Baritone section in Main Band. I’m still in beginners (degree permitting), but am now attempting to play first cornet. I love playing with BrassSoc, especially at UniBrass (gotta appreciate a bari moment) and Whit Friday, but my favourite part of the society has to be the people and the many dumb (but funny) things we do!

Hi! I’m Rosie, a 3rd year maths student and the society’s Marketing Manager. I was never a brass bander before uni, I’ve played trumpet since I was 10, was a proud 3rd cornet in Main Band in my 1st year and now play baritone horn. I’m also planning on learning trombone in Beginners’ Brass this year. My favourite part of BrassSoc is the opportunity to learn and play awesome music in a friendly environment, but most importantly getting to play at Whit Friday (like Christmas but better).

Hey, I’m Rachel, a 2nd Year History student and Librarian and Equipment manager on the exec. I have been playing the Tenor horn since I was 10 years old, and have loved continuing brass banding through Brass Soc. My favourite moment at Warwick this year would have to be Tri-Uni in Durham (RIP Klute), and when I’m not in Brass Soc you can probably find me either despairing over Manchester United, or watching Doctor Who.

Hello Fellas, I’m Will and I’m a second year Physics student but also your Social Secretary along with Jon. I play the euphonium, technically, but I’m also a trombone player. My favourite part of Brass Soc is probably the drinking socials… oh and the contests. Trombone supremacy.

Hello, I’m Leila and I play the tuba and study Computer Science! I started out playing the baritone horn when I was 8, but I switched to the tuba during sixth form and haven’t looked back since! I’ve involved myself in many music societies here at Warwick and when not in rehearsal or studying I can be found reading, crocheting or playing video games. This year I’m in charge of organising society busking sessions and charity fundraising!

Hello there! I’m Jon and am in my 2nd year of engineering ever closer to my limit. I’m Social Secretary along with Will. My favourite part of BrassSoc are surprisingly enough, the people and Bowling socials, which has not yet failed to produce entertainment for all involved. I play the bass trombone, and am getting increasingly worried that Jack will steal my role in main band.

Hi, I’m Alice! I’m a 2nd year Maths student and am one of this year’s Beginners Brass Coordinators. I play cornet in main band and enjoy running the beginners band with Alasdair. My favourite parts of BrassSoc this year were the UniBrass contest, our trip to Durham for Tri-Uni, and our many trips to watch some of the best brass bands in concerts and contests!

Hey all! My name is Alasdair and I’m a 2nd year history student. This year, I’m acting as joint leader of the Beginners Brass group with Alice. My favourite memories of my first year in BrassSoc were the Whit Friday band contest and our excellent summer tour to Barcelona. I played cornet in main band last year, alongside trumpet in Symphonic Brass. This year I’ll be trying my hand as a flugelhorn player!

I’m Ben, a second-year film student. I am the symphonic brass co-ordinator for this year which suits me because, in my opinion, trumpets are the best instruments. Outside of Brass soc you’ll find me watching films and tv or getting a cheeky pint at the Dirty Duck. My favourite part of brass last year was pub golf and I look forward to defending my crown this year.
