gear: Zoom H4

place: From a high room of the Hotel Venezia, recording Piazza Venezia (Trento, Italy)

description: I went to Trento, Italy to participate in the 'Premio Nazionale delle Arti' and the evening of April 9th ​​I placed the microphone from the window of my hotel overlooking the main square in a high position. The building was very old and the wooden floor creaked as you feel the beginning of recording. In addition, the high position of the room allowed me to record both the sounds of birds and those who came filtered by the atmosphere of a garbage truck that was his turn at the end of the day. The voices of people have been silenced by the distance of the room with the road, creating an eerie silence, broken by a few voices began to animate the square in a noisy way. At 07.45 AM start a small bell sound from the 'Duomo', after 15 minutes you can listen the 8 bell sound of the 8:00 o' clock.
