"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

Vesperata in Diamantina 2023
"In Diamantina, you will have the opportunity to watch one of the most beautiful musical shows of the local culture:
The Vesperata that seems, at first glance, to be a serenade in reverse.
Considered a “serenade in reverse” due to the fact that the musicians position themselves at the windows and play for the public on Rua da Quitanda, which is crowded with tables around the conducting maestros.
Each presentation brings together more than a thousand people.
The famous Vesperata de Diamantina, in addition to being a spectacle for the eyes and ears, is a source of pride for citizens of Diamantina.
It is a unique event because nothing compares to the feeling of watching the presentation tasting a good wine, or, if you prefer, the famous cachaça from the North of Minas Gerais." - https://www.pousadadogarimpo.com.br/noticias-do-blog/temporadas-vesperata-diamantina/

""Amigos Para Siempre (Friends for Life)", also called "Amics per sempre" in Catalan, is an official theme song of the 1992 Summer Olympics held in Barcelona, Spain. The music was composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber. The lyrics, written by Don Black, are in English, except for the title phrase which is repeated in English, Spanish and Catalan.
British soprano Sarah Brightman and Spanish tenor José Carreras performed the song during the closing ceremony of the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games.[2] The duet was also released worldwide as a single to coincide with the Games, peaking at number 11 on the UK Singles Chart and reaching number one in Australia for six weeks. It was one of two musical themes for the event. The other, simply titled "Barcelona", was sung by Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballé, and reached number two in the UK. Both appear on the compilation album Barcelona Gold, released to coincide with the Games.
A remixed version of the original, with less vocal reverb and modified balancing, was included on the compilation album Andrew Lloyd Webber: Now and Forever (2001)." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amigos_Para_Siempre
