About Freenotes

Freenotes Company was founded in 1990 by Grammy award winning musician Richard Cooke for the specific purpose of making music simple for everyone, regardless of experience or talent. Neither are necessary because Freenotes instruments remove the difficulties of muscular coordination and wrong notes. Our adage of Beautiful Music Made Simple has informed our designs and products throughout our history.

Freenotes are simply struck with a mallet to resound with lovely, resonated tones that are permanently in tune. Our instruments employ pentatonic (five note), and diatonic (seven note) scales rather than the complex chromatic (twelve note) scale used on the piano and all orchestral instruments. This means there are no wrong notes on Freenotes, so you can play with complete freedom and always enjoy perfect harmonies. All combinations of these notes are pleasing to the ear. Our scales are perfect for improvisation.

Another important feature of all Freenotes is the beauty of their resonated tones which is why our instruments are so relaxing to hear. Musicians and instrument makers passionately search for superior tonal quality. Three factors establish a percussion instrument’s tone when played: the initial strike, the timbre or harmonic content and the decay of the note. The design, materials and playing technique influence tone as well. All these factors weigh heavily during Freenotes quest to build joyful musical instruments. Even our mallets are handmade and selected specially to provide the best sound for each of our instruments. In response to Freenotes fourth generation Wings:

“I like the voicing on the keys which is more even than it used to be. The whole instrument comes alive when playing it. Brilliant work, Richard! You’re a master! Thank you!” -Alexandre
