Now is the right time to become an American Federation of Musicians member. From ragtime to rap, from the early phonograph to today's digital recordings, the AFM has been there for its members. And now there are more benefits available to AFM members than ever before, including a multi-million dollar pension fund, excellent contract protection, instrument and travelers insurance, work referral programs and access to licensed booking agents to keep you working.

As an AFM member, you are part of a membership of more than 80,000 musicians. Experience has proven that collective activity on behalf of individuals with similar interests is the most effective way to achieve a goal. The AFM can negotiate agreements and administer contracts, procure valuable benefits and achieve legislative goals. A single musician has no such power.

The AFM has a proud history of managing change rather than being victimized by it. We find strength in adversity, and when the going gets tough, we get creative - all on your behalf.

Like the industry, the AFM is also changing and evolving, and its policies and programs will move in new directions dictated by its members. As a member, you will determine these directions through your interest and involvement. Your membership card will be your key to participation in governing your union, keeping it responsive to your needs and enabling it to serve you better.

AFM Cellist Appointed to Order of Canada

  -  

Cellist Denis Brott, a member of AFM Local 406 (Montreal, PQ), was appointed Member of the Order of Canada in December 2014. He is recognized for promoting Canadian musical excellence, as well as his achievements as a musician and teacher, and for his role in establishing the Canada Council of the Arts’ Musical Instrument Bank and founding the Montreal Chamber Music Festival. He is now executive and artistic director of the festival that’s celebrating its 20th anniversary and a professor at the Conservatoire de musique du Québec à Montréal. “Being named to the Order of Canada is an honour unlike any I have had in my life,” says Brott. “I am proudly Canadian and to be recognized by my own country in this way is thrilling.”
