American Federation of Musicians

We are truly the professionals in the live performance music business – the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, the Michigan Opera Theater Orchestra, the Fisher Theater and Fox Theater Orchestras, as well as legendary jazz, studio, and commercial recording musicians. We are the musicians who created the original Motown sound. The very best live performance musical groups are proud to call Detroit home.

Music Performance Trust Fund

For more than 50 years the Detroit Federation of Musicians has helped enrich the lives of the people of Metro Detroit by partnering with the Recording Industry’s Music Performance Trust Fund. By providing live, admission-free, quality music, performed by professional musicians to the public of all ages and backgrounds, the Music Performance Trust Fund has helped increase the public’s knowledge and appreciation of music and has brought exciting educational programs to thousands of schools so that music can be part of every child’s life experience.

Detroit Musicians Fund

The Detroit Musicians Fund, a charitable corporation, was founded in 2003 by the Detroit Federation of Musicians for the purposes of assisting union musicians in dire need and of providing scholarship assistance to college music students.
