Recordist's notes
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Orange Day parades were previously restricted in size and attendance. In 2022, the parade was back on in pre-covid conditions, meaning a full day of marching and celebration. The recordings took place such as the recording position of last year and the return route marching was recorded within a flat less than 300m from Lisburn Road. The recordings are separated into four sections to best time compress the activities taking place during the march, Section 1 – beginning of marching, Section 2 – marching break, Section 3 – continued marching, and Section 4 – return route marching through the perspective on window listening. Recording of Full Parade, Return Parade, marching, viewers, helicopters, drums, whistles, flutes, accordions, vehicles, chatter, celebration, bottles, drinking, smoking, and stalled vehicles. – Georgios Varoutsos (https://georgiosvaroutsos.com/covid-19_belfast-city-lifted-restrictions/)
