Minneapolis, USA lockdown sound recorded by Katharine Horowitz.

"In order to maintain stay-at-home orders, Minneapolis issued a permit for a mosque in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood to broadcast the "adhan" during Ramadan so that Muslims can still pray, but do so safely apart. This recording was made at 5pm on May 7, 2020. The prayer can be heard starting at 2:52."
