In 1940 H.W. completed Flentrop a two-manual organ for the Zuiderkerk in Ede. The church was later named 'Beatrix Church'. The instrument was expanded by A.H. de Graaf in 1956 and 1968 with two registers. Due to many malfunctions, Fonteijn & Gaal installed a new console in 1970. Consultants were Johan van Dommele and Johan Vetter on behalf of the GOV. After a renovation of the church building in 1988/1989, the company Kaat & Tijhuis restored the instrument. The disposition was changed and the organ was re-voiced. Finally, in 1994, a suboctave coupler between the two manuals was added by the same company.
