Abstract
The Walcker Organ (1916) at Doesburg, Martinikerk, betrays Oscar Walcker's 'tacit' aesthetics: it is a copy of the much larger Walcker organ (1912) at Hamburg, Michaeliskirche, be it significantly reduced in size by leaving away all early 20th century additions the Hamburg organ was equipped with. Which makes the Doesburg organ 'just' another German 'modern organ' in the tradition of the late 19th century.
