Recordist's notes
Being in the center of the city the quiet of the St. Ulrici-Brüdern cloisters is a welcome surprise. The cloisters are reached through the church, which on this occasion was the venue for a Lego exhibition combined with models of the city at different historical periods and rather popular with kids. One enters the cloisters through heavy woodedn doors that are very effective in excluding sound once closed.
