Boston Crusaders 2024


Recommended Posts

I remember that I first met Ryan G at a winter camp in Maryland as the corps was rehearsing for Obama's second Inauguration.   He had arranged the parade tune, and that was January of 2013.   So I am thinking he may have joined the team in 2012.

I just checked the dci year books. 2012 was Ryan. 2011 was Jay Kennedy

I'm wondering if anybody has a list of all the brass arrangers BAC has had over the years.   I'd be curious there's been a few notables over the years but I'm thinking 2012 was his first year.  In 2020 I believe , in the music for all website that he maintains it had that he was in his 8th year of arranging for Boston.

I believe Ryan took over from Jay Kennedy

Also, I believe JD Shaw wrote for them at one time.

Some other's I believe also wrote for them.

Jim Prime Jr.?

Larry Kershner?

Jerry Noonan (1980's) notable North Star soloist.

@craiga probably can provide more detail.

That would be a very long project in the making I bet. I know the dci yearbook lists them but Boston wasn’t always fortunate to get a page

Sounds right...I think Jay arranged 2008 "Neocosmos" through 2011.

Also, in 1990, we had, believe it or not, Jim Prime, Larry Kirshner,  AND  Robert W. Smith each arranging parts of our 50th Anniversary show.  Robert wrote the ballad, which he named "Sunrise at Castille".

Lol!  I'm just a high school show designer on the downside of a mediocre career.  😀  But over 40 years of doing that....

I was only a visual tech for BAC.  But I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express once.
