A CONDUCTOR’S LEGACY
Dr. William Patrick Foster: a man who overcame adversity, a man who worked exceptionally hard, a man who created a legacy.
Dr. Foster’s ties to Florida A&M University (FAMU) and the world he lived in are forever present because of his commitment to excellence in making the world-renowned FAMU Marching “100” Band a sound to remember.
The Man Behind The Baton provides an in-depth look at the life and times of The Maestro, the Law, and the Legend.™

DR. WILLIAM PATRICK FOSTER earned his bachelor of music education from the University of Kansas in 1941, his master of arts in music from Wayne State University in 1950, and his doctor of education degree from Columbia University in 1956. Dr. Foster became director of bands at FAMU in 1946 and took the band program to a historic level of success—creating what is known today as “The Marching 100.” The FAMU band excited and thrilled millions around the world with the carefully curated and perfected “band sound,” cadence, and animation and is today regarded as “The Most Imitated Matching Band in America.” Dr. Foster is credited with revolutionizing marching band techniques and reshaping the world's concept of the collegiate marching band.
