Conway, Patrick, 1867-1929
Along with Patrick S. Gilmore, John Philip Sousa, and Arthur Pryor, Patrick Conway stands as a major contributor to the history of bands in the United States in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Patrick ("Patsy") Conway was born on July 4, 1867 near Troy, New York. He received his early formal education at the Homer Academy. Following the death of his father, when Conway was fifteen, he went to work at a carriage factory. It was there that he was taught to play the cornet by a fellow worker, who was also director of the Homer Band. Conway joined the band and within a few years became its director. He continued his formal music education at Ithaca Conservatory and Cornell University.
