Iron bridge over the Tiber

The recording is from April 17, 2025. The recording point was chosen under the iron bridge that crosses the Tiber River near the town of Pretola a few kilometers from Perugia in Umbria. Interesting reflections and resonances are created under the bridge. Water is certainly the dominant acoustic element but its veil is constantly torn by a multitude of sounds. 

The bridge, despite being located in a densely populated and busy area, isolates the urban environment creating a capsule of natural sounds.
