Dear organ friends,
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to join our special organ tour from October 5–10, 2026. For an entire week, we will enjoy the rich organ culture of the Netherlands, visiting unique instruments, inspiring musicians, and stunning churches.
We will be staying in a comfortable hotel in Marknesse, from where we will set out on our daily musical journeys.
🎶 Highlights of the tour
- Friesland: a day trip to hear the splendid Ahrend organ in Joure and the characterful Van Dam organ in Raerd.
- North Holland: a visit to the soon-to-be completed Verschueren organ in the Westerkerk of Enkhuizen – a very promising instrument!
- Groningen: an unforgettable day in the company of Sietze de Vries, who will guide us along some of Groningen’s finest organs and delight us with his masterful playing.
- Zwolle: to conclude, we will visit the world-famous Schnitger organ in the Grote Kerk, which by then will have been beautifully restored to its full glory.
In addition to these musical highlights, there will be plenty of opportunity to meet one another, share experiences, and enjoy Dutch hospitality together.
We look forward to experiencing this remarkable journey with you and creating memories that will resonate for years to come.
With warm regards,
Johan Stolk & Jan-Willem Jonkman
