Recordist's notes
recorded by: Max Stein equipment used: Olympus LS-10 & OKM Binaurals Sitting in the middle of the rotunda at the foot of the escalator inside the St-Jacques entrance to the Square-Victoria Metro Station. Due to its round shape, the space has a distinct echo that colors the sounds taking place inside and traps the sounds taking place outside. The woman singing is in a long hall about 40 meters away from the rotunda. for more info, please visite the Montreal Sound Map @ http://cessa.music.concordia.ca/soundmap/en/
