Recordist's notes
On this small public plaza, a young group of people was chatting on a very limited portion of its surface, grouped on one of these perimetered rectangular platforms. Their space for meeting was quite small compared to the actual space available, but because of the topographic situation the acoustic there was quite good, distanced from the road by a small mount and surrounded by trees. Binaural, to be listened to in comparison with the other recording on the street side.
