Medieval music in Calatayud, Spain.
Here, one can hear musicians wearing medieval clothes, passing by in a street of Calatayud (Spain),while playing music (drums and bombard or pipe) during a folkloric festival. In the background, voice of people watching, and noise from the surroundings.
Big thanks to treefolk (from Sevilla) for the great performance, and to Dominique LUCE, who kindly recorded this audio for me.
Recorded in June 2022 with a Yamaha Pocketrak C24 (internal microphones.
Fade in/out applied in Audacity.

@lancelindley : Right, it sounds very similar.
I guess it would be a traditional Spanish medieval music/song.

https://freesound.org/people/bolkmar/sounds/424789/ This sounds remarkably similar except the linked one from 4 years earlier has church bells. Probably recorded in the same town... I guess these musicians play the same songs all the time.

I recorded the drummers on the street yesterday. I will post them. I enjoy moments like this.

Yes, you're right, AGC was applied, because this is easier for someone who's not familiar with recording activity.
