"After seven long years of waiting, the US supergroup The Winery Dogs will finally be seen in Germany again. After announcing three shows in June in Hamburg (June 12th), Cologne (June 20th) and Frankfurt (June 21st), Richie Kotzen (v, g), Billy Sheehan (b, v) and Mike Portnoy (dr, v ) four more dates in Germany for autumn 2023 in Leipzig (October 18th) and Berlin (October 19th). Munich (November 3rd) and Osnabrück (November 4th) announced General advance sales for the four autumn dates start on Friday, April 21st, 2023, at 10 a.m. There's also a bit of wisdom in the name: like an old wine that's given enough time to ferment and breathe, The Winery Dogs get better and better with every album. And so “III” is once again a strong statement from a band made up of exceptional musicians who have managed to put their talents together. It was unclear for a long time that there would be a third album after the two US Top 30 albums “The Winery Dogs” (2013) and “Hot Streak” (2015), only a short pre-pandemic tour in 2019 brought about get the ball rolling again. “We really wanted to tour,” explains Kotzen of the 22-concert short tour at the beginning of 2019, which took place under the name “Who Let The Dogs Out”. “We just had to get back together again to get the engine of this band running again.” Portnoy adds: “It was a small, nice, fun tour that rekindled our enthusiasm. After that, it was clear to everyone that a third album was still possible.” And Sheehan remembers: “Playing together again was downright refreshing. We were able to relax a bit and just have fun being on stage together, all without pressure.
"It was great." When you consider the breadth and scope present in "III," it's easy to imagine how much fun the band must have had in Richie Kotzen's Southern California studio. During the recording of the ten songs, the band's basic concept was not questioned, but rather manifested, as Kotzen confirms: “Our goal is to give the listener a pleasant time when devoting themselves to the music. Our music is created by real people on real instruments, everything happens in a room where the three of us are. There's nothing artificial about it." Billy Sheehan also emphasizes: "I want our listeners to follow exactly the path we took during the recording. Our discs are snapshots of life and how we live it. Our music reflects what is important to us and what is not.” Finally, Mike Portnoy knows more about it: “The strength of this band is, first and foremost, the songs. It's all about this. No more, but no less either. Then comes the musical craft and ability, which is very important. What makes The Winery Dogs so extraordinary: Each of our songs can be quickly recognized, they are catchy and easy to sing along to. At the same time, you also have this incredible musical ability on all levels. It's like a three-ring circus. No matter who you watch or listen to, you will always be entertained." What better motto for the upcoming tour?" - https://trinitymusic.de/events/berlin/the-winery-dogs
Ave Maria (Bach/Gounod) performed in the oldest Church Organ in Brazil, Diamantina, Minas Gerais

"Made in Europe, the Organ installed in the Church of Nossa Senhora do Carmo in Diamantina is the only one entirely built in Brazil between the years 1782 and 1787.
Father Manuel de Almeida e Silva and José Joaquim Emérico Lobo de Mesquita were responsible for this construction. This important composer was the first organist appointed to play the instrument, composing and interpreting a large part of his work.
The Organ was named in honor of these two historical characters, being called and recognized as Almeida e Silva / Lobo de Mesquita Historical Organ. Other personalities from Diamantina, such as Chica da Silva, João Fernandes de Oliveira and Padre Rolim, also contributed to its construction by donating resources.
One of the distinguishing features of the Almeida e Silva / Lobo de Mesquita Historical Organ is that it was made in Minas Gerais, its box is made of national cedar and its position is in the center of the Church's choir, as the organs were generally positioned close to the walls." . https://minhasgerais.com.br/diamantina-e-regiao/concertodoorgao/
"The Almeida e Silva / Lobo de Mesquita organ was built between 1782 and 1787 in the Church of the Venerable Third Order of Nossa Senhora do Carmo, in Diamantina, Minas Gerais, by Father Manuel de Almeida e Silva. Historical evidence indicates that its construction was guided by the important composer José Joaquim Emerico Lobo de Mesquita, the first organist appointed to play the instrument. In it, the musician composed and performed a large part of his work. The organ is today named in honor of these two historical figures. Other personalities, such as Chica da Silva and Padre Rolim, also contributed to its construction by donating resources.
Unlike other Brazilian church organs built at the time, made in Europe, this one stands out for having been entirely made in Brazil, with the box and wooden tubes made from national cedar, which protected them from insects typical of the tropics that used to attack European woods. The positioning in the center of the choir is another characteristic that differentiates it, since in general the organs were positioned close to the walls. From the 1950s until the end of its restoration, the organ was silent." - https://www.bndes.gov.br/wps/portal/site/home/onde-atuamos/cultura-e-economia-criativa/patrimonio-cultural-brasileiro/projetos-apoiados/orgao-hist-almeida-silva-lobo-mesquita/orgao-hist-almeida-silva-lobo-mesquita
