The Field Recording PodCast by Thijs GeritzSteiger bouwen/Building a scaffold (Theresia van Ávila kerk, Den Haag, September 13th 2013)Door een ondegelijke renovatie 2 jaar geleden kon men opnieuw een steiger gaan bouwen rond de Theresia van Ávila kerk in Den Haag. De constructie van de steiger duurde dit keer niet 2 maanden maar slechts 1 week... gelukkig.
Due to unsound renovations 2 years ago they had to construct another a scaffold around the Theresia of Ávila church in The Hague. Luckily, this time the construction took only 1 week instead of 2 months.
