Recordist's notes
The Echobrücke is very accurately named, it's echoes are spectacular. The concrete arch is almost perfectly semi-circular and high above your head from the road and river bank below. The multiple echoes from handclapping give a long series of nicely timed repeats that many passers by are happy to experiment with.
