Add Sandra Opie, Gail Royer, Corky Fabrizio and Truman Crawford.

Edited for suggestion to identify the corps and shows arrangers were perhaps best known for:

Sandra Opie (Argonne Rebels early 1970s...top horn line in DCI)

Gail Royer (horn arranger for early years of SCV...

Corky Fabrizio (although best known for senior corps, check out his show for 1974 Purple Lancers...exploring symphonic band music in a unique manner that was quite challenging)

Truman Crawford (best known for his arrangements for the US Marine Corps D&B Corps, but arguably introduced jazz in a legitimate manner with Royal Airs)

Not a hardcore Cadet fan but...

Jay Bocook

2001 Cadets - Juxtaperformance

2005 Cadets - Liquid (best original work on the field ever IMO)

2007 Cadets - Blue Shades was amazingly written. The last minute of the Closer was some of the most exciting written works I've ever heard.
