Earlier this year, freesound.org launched the Freesound 20th Anniversary Composition contest to celebrate two decades of Freesound. The contest invited sound artists, composers, and explorers from around the world to create works around the theme of Intangible Heritage, using only sounds from the Freesound archive.

My audio presentation is about the village Bokhoven and the Meuse river presented in 12 months from January to December in 12 nature tracks.
This is about a beautiful area, a part of the fragile wetland delta from the Netherlands, and is only 100 km from the North-Sea coast.
Here is where I have made hundreds of recordings the past 15 years.

What I hope and wish is that our grandchildren's grandchildren will still be able to enjoy this, in the flesh, but that is up to us.

explanatory list

Here is my audio document of all the seasons over many years of Bokhoven and its surroundings.

Al the sound in this document are recorded in and around Bokhoven and uploaded earlier on freesound.
