Aart van Beek The organ from Gapinge in the Nationaal Orgelmuseum in Elburg
Het ORGEL 113 (2017), nr. 2, 26-32 [summary]

The Nationaal Orgelmuseum in Elburg has a number of lovely cabinet organs. One of these, placed in the so-called Balkonzaal, is known as the Gapinge organ. This house organ has had a turbulent history, and in 2013 was almost sold to the University of Liverpool. Fortunately the museum managed to keep the instrument in the Netherlands. Consultant Aart van Beek has been studying this organ since the 1980s. This article presents interesting and previously unpublished information and photos .
