1967 Ernst Leeflang  new organ
1999 Pels & Van Leeuwen  transfer/relocate

  • In 1967 Ernst Leeflang built a new organ for the Gereformeerde Pelgrimskerk (Pilgrim Church) in Amstelveen-Amsterdam Buitenveldert. Consultant was Lambert Erné. The church was closed in 1998, after which the organ was sold to the Ichtuskerk in Ridderkerk. An electronic organ had been used in this church since its dedication in in 1986.
  • Supervisor during the transfer was Arie J. Keijzer, who also played it in the dedication service on June 26, 1999. The organ was transferred by Pels & Van Leeuwen. They replaced the Scherp (4 ranks) of the Rugwerk by a Sexquialter, which was made separately playable as a Quint 3' by pulling half the trigger. The voicing is only slightly adjusted.
