- The organ in the church of the Nederlandse Protestantenbond in Baarn was built in 1979-1980 by the company Elbertse from all kinds of older parts. The organ case and prospect date from around 1880 and were used in 1916 by N.A. van Dam for the construction of a new pneumatic organ for the church. This instrument was in a bad condition in 1969. It was dismantled. In the church people started to use an electronic instrument.
- Elbertse constructed the new organ using a wind chest by C.G.F. Witte from 1855, from the demolished organ from the Remonstrant Church in Leiden, and pipework by Flaes & Brünjes from 1864, from the organ of the Remonstrant Church in The Hague, A new organ could be built with two keyboards and an independent pedal with a total number of 12 stops. On January 26, 1980 the organ was inaugurated with a concert by Gert Muts.
- In 1995, the Elbertse company installed a new bellow because the old one had broken. Major maintenance was also carried out. In addition, the Scherp II ranks of the second manual has been replaced by a Quint 2 2/3'.
- Before the construction of the organ of Van Dam in 1916-1917, there was an organ of the firm Maarschalkerweerd & Zoon from 1896 in the church. This was put up for sale on May 26, 1916 in the Kerkelijke Courant. It was sold to the Reformed Church in Sint Jacobiparochie, where it served until 1972.
