International Confederation of Musicians

For the current federation of musicians, see International Federation of Musicians.

The International Confederation of Musicians (ICM) was a global union federation bringing together trade unions representing musicians.

The confederation was established on 11 May 1904, at a conference in Paris.[1] After World War I, it affiliated to the International Federation of Trade Unions. By 1922, its affiliates had a total of 52,550 members, but it appears to have dissolved soon afterwards.[2] After World War II, a new International Federation of Musicians was established.[3]
