Recordist's notes
The recording was taken later in the evening on 21.12.2022 in the middle of Reit im Winkl. Until early afternoon, the village was still covered in white winter splendor. But, then, the temperatures rose by about 10 degrees until the evening, and the wetness of the streets and the rhythms of dripping rain gutters determined the sound space.
