A few years ago I went to Aya Sofya with a Turkish violinist friend who studiest at a conservatory here. Unexpectedly, up on the top floor, he pulled out his violin and started playing an Armenian/Azeri song called "Laz".
He made it through 3 glorious minutes before security escorted him out. The sound was unreal.
I would love to hear the same test done in the Basilica Cistern.
- batirch 7y agoDo you have video?
- isjustaguy 7y agoSadly / happily, no. The moment was too special to record.
- isjustaguy 7y agoMy apologies, the song itself is called Lachin, not Laz. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq2KWVrLKEM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq2KWVrLKEM (Not the Aya Sofya moment)
