Küçük Ayasofya Cami-i (Little Aghia Sophia), Istanbul, Turkey
Recorded summer 2001
06m44s
This recording was made in the gardens around the mosque, just before the Imams call (Imam Hatibi). We hear the sound of water under pressure. I was particularly interested in the combination of the water under pressure and the Imam calling. However the people were dissapointed to see me pointing the microphone in the direction of the pipes instead of directing it to the speaker of the mosque! One of the eldest took my microphone to put it in the direction of the minaretspeaker. A bit of a dirty/clipped recording because of this fact...

train passing by. The mosque is situated near the railway road.
