Haarlem, traditional Whit Monday (May 12th) organ festival
Hi all, This year the event will be larger than it ever was, it will take place in the town centre of Haarlem and at least 50 organs will attend. Also, amongst others, performances by the band Flairck, accompanied by their newly built orchestrion, the musical clowns Duo Doorgedraaid with their little organ and concerts on a mechanical organ together with the famous Müller organ in the Bavo church.
