Having spent 2 weeks in Spain on the Classics trip looking at architecture, I was pleased to be able to identify the different styles on the outside of the Baptistery, from Romanesque at the bottom to Gothic at the top. Inside, the acoustics are extraordinary, and one of the attendants did a short demonstration. I found this article about how it seems to have been deliberately designed that way: http://www.emis.de/journals/NNJ/Guardian.html
