About Wild Notes

A scenic view of mountains with a clear blue sky and a serene lake in the foreground.

Our Mission

 Wild Notes Foundation connects people more deeply with the natural world through music, listening, and place-based experiences. In partnership with parks and protected places, we create programs that invite people to slow down, pay attention, and build meaningful relationships with the landscapes around them—fostering curiosity, connection, and care for the places we share. 

Our Story

In 2019, our founder performed a solo recital in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The audience hiked in, the land listened—and amidst the wild note of nature, she discovered how music can belong with the landscape, not just beside it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at hello@wildnotes.org if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Wild Notes connects people to the natural world through music and intentional listening in outdoor public spaces.


Through unplugged performances, soundwalks, and educational programs, we invite audiences to slow down, pay attention, and experience music as part of the living landscape. Each program is developed in collaboration with park partners to honor the unique character of each place. By fostering presence and curiosity, Wild Notes encourages care for the environments that sustain us. 


Wild Notes Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law. 


Wild Notes operates from Houston, TX, with our programs taking place in Texas State Parks and National Parks across the country.


Our musical events are located along hiking trails and camp sites in our nation's beautiful parks and forests, open to planned audiences as well as passing hikers. Anyone and everyone is welcome!


Wild Notes concerts are free to attend, with donations gladly accepted. Your donations help us to bring music and sound-based interpretive programming experiences to wild places, while promoting environmental stewardship.


We kindly ask that Wild Notes participants follow all rules and regulations posted by the hosting park or forest, and follow a leave-no-trace philosophy; do not leave trash at the site or disrupt the nature around you. 


Wild Notes is committed to responsible stewardship of public lands. Our progams cause no disruption to wildlife, leave no trace on the environment, and encourage deeper appreciation of America's national treasures.


Wild Notes was founded by cellist Dr. Amanda Guilfoyle in Houston, TX, in 2025.
