Recordist's notes
A long post Covid walk around the centre of Worcester starting in a shopping precinct then out onto the streets, in and out of the cathedral, back along High Street and outside a cafe for lunch. We hear snatches of conversation and a street musician on a sunny day. The audio image changes constantly as I slowly wander around between pauses. All the recording equipment, a MixPre 6 II with 2 Sennheiser MKH 8020s, is carried in a small rucksack.
