What Directors have said...        "Scott Hickey's expertise and quality of writing has always been exceptional for the group... Scott is extremely professional to work with, and has always produced his product within the timeframe of the contractual agreement.   Scott's professionalism and years of experience as an educator, judge, and arranger give him a unique vantage point on how to approach problems. Scott has been a tremendous asset to the continued success of the Montezuma-Cortez H.S. Marching Panthers."      - Rodney Ritthaler, Band Director, Montezuma-Cortez H.S. (CO)   "Scott's work is timely and creative. He has a real understanding of what students are capable of, and writes to their ability. His pacing and understanding of what makes a great marching show is second to none."      - Tammy Ahmed, Band Director, Bear Creek H.S. (CO)     "As the former Director of Bands in Marietta, Ohio, I am aware of how difficult it is to find an arranger that is timely in product delivery as well as in product quality. Many times you can get one but not the other. I am happy to say that with Scott Hickey getting both quality and delivery on time is possible."       - Marshall Kimball, Director of Bands, Marietta College (OH)
