About Freesound
Freesound is a collective of musicians specializing in contemporary and experimental music, based in Toronto. We work closely with composers in the creation of adventurous new music, and we believe in a process where both composers and performers are deeply engaged in the creative journey, together shaping works in a way that challenges conventions and sparks innovation.
Land Acknowledgment
We at Freesound want to acknowledge that we operate on unceded land that has been the home of Indigenous peoples and nations long before colonial documentation of time - specifically the Haudenosaunee, the Anishinaabe, the Wendat, and the Mississaugas of the Credit – people who continue to live and work here in what is currently known as Toronto or Tkaronto. It is now home of many diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Metis peoples, as well as the meeting ground for the urban Indigenous Tkaronto community.
Subsequent Indigenous peoples from around the world, as well as settlers, newcomers, refugees, and displaced people have been invited into this treaty in the spirit of peace, friendship, and respect.
