4- Sounds closest to me: The sound of my exhalation.
5- General sound level and amount of sound activity: General sound level is very soft and the level of sound activity is about at a medium. Cast members are singing in harmony, two guitars are strumming to the light whisper of the tempo. All of the sounds come together to make a crisp streamline of sound so that it makes the elements seem linear. The people walking outside are in no rush at all, their steps seem to swing along with the rhythm of the song and the whispers. I notice my breathing naturally aligns itself with the sounds around me.
6- One word description of the “sound environment”: Swung.
