Orgelmakerij Steendam

Established by Sicco Steendam in 1986, Orgelmakerij Steendam builds, restores and renovates church organs. Steendam’s main inspiration comes from the organs by the 19th century organ builder C. G. F. Witte, his predecessor Bätz and the organ builder Christian Muller, and the company logo displays the first bars of Johann Sebastian Bach’s greatest Prelude in E minor. Bach used this key as a musical adaptation of the Holy Trinity, and for Steendam it is a statement of his life and craft. Working according to traditional methods and always prioritising quality and sound, Steendam explains the level of complexity involved.
