MILTON FOY WITH CONN CO.
Weil-Known Band Conductor to Be Dean of New
Conn Music School.
Milton W. Foy, conductor of "Foy and his Band,"
is now connected with the Conn-Chicago Company as
organizer for the Conn bands and orchestras. It is
reported that he will also be dean of the Conn Music
School, which the Conn-Chicago Company plans
soon to open.
The Conn Music. School will hold band and or-
chestra rehearsals weekly. One rehearsal per week
will be for the professional musicians. Mr. Foy is
especially fitted to take charge of such a school.
Besides having himself played trombone in many
of the best bands in the United States, and con-
ducted his own "Scotch Highlanders" and later "Foy
and his Band," Mr. Foy has the distinction of hav-
ing conducted one of the most successful rehearsals
for professional men. In the three years from 1917
to 1919 he conducted weekly rehearsals at the head-
quarters of the Chicago Federation of Musicians,
for professional musicians. This had been attempted
before, but never with great success. Mr. Foy suc-
ceeded in keeping an attendance of from sixty to
seventy of the Chicago musicians regularly at these
weekly rehearsals. Many men who now rank as
some of the best musicians in the country gained
their first experience here.
Besides his reputation as a conductor, Mr. Foy is
also known as the owner of what is probably the
largest library of standard and classical band com-
positions in the country. Some of the works in his
possession date back to the twelfth century; many oi
them are now out of print and unobtainable. Some
are of historical worth, as for example, the march
played at the execution of Mary Queen of Scots,
or the selection composed by Frederick the Great
of Prussia.
