## Resource

"When I heard this field recording it reminded me of a similar recording my wife and I had done several years ago where we played an Iron bridge with mallets. I took this as a perfect opportunity to graft pieces of each together to create a cohesive recording of similar elements. "The playful running of the children on the bridge formed the central musical theme which suggested the direction of the harmonies heard in the final composition." Vibrations on La Villette Folie L5, Paris reimagined by Gerald Fratzl.
