CT-4 Organ Museum and Grote Kerk, Elburg
Tuesday May 15th, 8:30-13:00 hr
Fee: NLG 30.-
Small is beautiful! Small, but smart is the organ-museum, where you can really learn all the ins and outs of a traditional pipe organ. Small is the historical city, where life is much the same as centuries ago. Large is the Grote Kerk, home of the Dutch Boys Choir, where the city organist will improvise on the theme: AES.
