Alyssa Daly

Alyssa Daly has been a member of the Boston Musicians Association for over 30 years. She is a 1st call freelance French horn player and has worked with the Boston Ballet, the Boston Philharmonic, the Boston Modern Orchestra Project, and many national Broadway tours in Boston and elsewhere. 

What do you enjoy doing with your family? I’m the mother of two daughters, Adalyn (13) and Anabel (11), and married to freelance trumpet player Jay Daly, also a member of the Boston Musicians Association.  

My family means everything. Music is a close second!

“Our union rep 1st told me about this fund to help freelancers during the 2020 pandemic. We were so grateful during those difficult times. Then my wife, Alyssa, was diagnosed with colon cancer this past year and couldn’t work. This fund came through for us like we could never imagined. The donations from friends, family, colleagues, audience members, and strangers were incredible. We were, again, so overwhelmingly grateful. Thank you NEMRF. Your service to freelance musicians is golden.” Jay Daly, Trumpeter

As we start this new year, we’ll be here to support Alyssa and her family.
