@Musicmany2k It means the 'foundling', an abandoned child, which refers to a chapter in its history.

Not a bit like most Gasparini's in sound, but still very good. Thanks, Stuart.

The organ was built by Jan Gillet in the 1950s from earlier Gasparini and Limonaire organs adding Bourdon Celeste and to a new scale typical of Dutch Street Organs of the period. The french bellows are a little small for the present scale, but O.K.

The facade is exactly copied from the Gasparini organ in 'Museum van Speelklok tot Pierement' in Utrecht. However, the sound is completely different: far more sophisticated. The Gasparini in Utrecht only plays loudly! I am amazed by the speed the of the wheel in the first slow piece of music!
