The musicians of SWS not only differ in occupations but also in ages ~ ranging from teenage students to working adults in senior managerial posts. All musicians come together for the pursuit and love of music. This, not surprisingly, is also one of the social glue for the continued existence of the band.

Our conductor:

Regan G. Wickman:  Educator / Musician

As educator, Regan has amassed considerable experience as a wind ensemble and jazz band director as well as a low brass instructor. Involved in international education for most of the past 8 years, his posts have included international schools in both Hong Kong and Bangkok where he was most recently Director of Instrumental Music at Bangkok’s International Community School. He has also served as band adjudicator and clinician for Yamaha Music and guest resident artist at the Thailand Brass Festival in March 2006.

Regan also maintains an active schedule as a professional freelance trombonist, having appeared with the Bangkok Symphony and Opera Orchestras, HTB Orchestra Nagasaki, Japan and various jazz venues in Hong Kong. Prior to living in Asia, he was based in Los Angeles, California for over 15 years where his background included extensive work with Columbia Artists, Disney Corporation, Royal Caribbean Cruises and literally dozens of theatre orchestra productions. In addition, he has both recorded and toured with the Jazz Pacific Orchestra, Legends of Swing, Pacific Brass Quintet and Jimmy Dorsey Band throughout North America and Europe. He also has numerous recording sessions to his credit including music, television and film.

Regan studied jazz education at the University of North Texas and holds a Master’s Degree in classical trombone performance from California State University, Long Beach.
