Playlist for June 30, 2010

At left is an image of the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey. Designed by Isidore of Miletus, it served as a church in the city of Constantinople from 360 to 1453. When the city had been lost to the Ottoman Turks and became today's Istanbul, it was converted into a mosque by Sultan Mehmed II.
The architecture of the building was revolutionary, which its large domed arches, the largest the world had seen. Upon conversion, 4 minarets were added. Currently, the Hagia Sophia acts as a museum.




So, it was the second installation of Take A Walk this morning, and I want to thank everyone who listened in, I hope everyone enjoyed it! Just so you know, I'm always open to more suggestions as to what people would like to hear on the show, so don't hesitate, shoot me an email or reply to this post! And, without further ado, here's the playlist:

At left, you'll find an image of La Sagrada Familia, a beautiful structure found in Barcelona, Spain. Construction on the building was started in 1882, and isn't expected to be completed until 2026.


Thank you to those who tuned in earlier this morning for the first program!
For any suggestions on what I should play in future shows, shoot me an email at gilliane@kuci.org and I'll totally see what I can do! I'm always looking for new World music because the genre is a new one to me. I'm expanding my horizons, so I'm open to suggestions!

I found a lot of tunes from Eurovision's pop music competition, so that's where a number of these tunes come from. For those I don't include the album, I'll put what country's entry in the competition the song was.
