As Head of Strings at the Royal Irish Academy of Music (appointed in 2023), she shapes the next generation of violinists while remaining an active performer with the Irish Chamber Orchestra and a wide range of ensembles. Daly’s work spans classical repertoire and contemporary, jazz, gypsy, and rock collaborations, reflecting a commitment to holistic music education and innovative performance practice.
