The Hagia Sophia was the site of a significant massacre when it was forcibly converted from a church to a mosque.

Unless the blood from that massacre changed the acoustics of the space, it's still not enormously relevant to the article.

Eh, I will kind of buy that. It was a church before it was a mosque and churches tend to have quite a bit more music than mosques.

The race war comment above seemed uncharitable.
