Istanbul - An acoustic journey between Hagia Sophia and Beyoğlu

Close your eyes and open your ears for Istanbul! You can now dream of Istanbul from home with the audio book from geophon. So you lie relaxed on the sofa and listen to the babble of voices in the bazaars, the music from the trendy Beyoğlu district, the stories from the harem and the many interviews with people from Istanbul. They tell little stories, give special tips and report exciting historical facts: For example, the archaeologist Kaan tells about thousands of years old finds during a tour of a construction site in Yenikapı, which were discovered during the construction of a transfer station, while the young trader Mustafa at his sales stand explains the principle of action to the Grand Bazaar and the chef Vedat raves about the delicacies and refinements of Ottoman cuisine. Original sounds and music from Istanbul - for example by Baba Zula, Sezen Aksu or Nekropsi - accompany the journey and transport the listener right into the life of the city, in which the sound of electronic music is mixed with the distant call of the muezzin, the screeching of seagulls and mixed with the babble of voices on the streets to a fascinating sound composition.
