On the other hand, these names are a select few out of hundreds (thousands?) of past and present band composers. I'm sure that most of these composers are fairly easy to recognize. It's also noteworthy that some of them (Shoenberg, Messiaen, Stravinsky, Mendelssohn, Vaughan Williams, etc.) had their mainstay in orchestral writing.
