recorded in the summer of 1992 in a small village in SW Turkey called Patara...this is the first 'ezan' (call to prayer) of the day at dawn (about 5am)...muezzin (the men who recite the ezan) now use microphones...but despite a chorus of crickets the quality here is not obscured by traffic or other human noise...I used a portable Sony DAT recorder...

This is a beautiful and inspiring recording, even for one who is entirely non-religious. Thank you for posting it.

"One note made on the spot is more worth than a thousand recollections"
An ultimate and fine recording of a superb transcending voice that seems to be in dialogue with its direct environment.
A gold standard.
