American Composers Forum

 

The American Composers Forum honors and acknowledges the Anishinaabe and Dakota people, the ancestral caretakers of this land; we take this time to consider the acts of violence, displacement, and unjust treatment toward them that have occurred over many generations; we offer our respect and gratitude to the elders of the past, to those living today, and to those who will come in the future, for their careful stewardship of this land and its resources and for the rich cultural legacy they will continue to create here.

The American Composers Forum enriches lives by nurturing the creative spirit of composers and communities.
