The distant sound of the Weihnachtmarkt fairground can be heard across the water. Also a dog barking and the distant sound of people shouting at the fairground across the river. This needs careful listening to!

Environmental sounds at the tram station including birds, distant traffic noise, the distant sound of someone working on a building site (constant hitting with a hammer or other tool), the sound of a bicycle passing by and the sound of a tram passing by.

Sound of rain on a windowsill, recorded from the street. The rain can also be heard on the umbrella, which is up to protect the equipment. Cars can be heard passing by on the street. There was heavy rain falling at the time and the sound on the windowsill was unusual and much richer than other sounds of rain - sounded very hollow.
