The Flentrop Organ
Saint Marks Organ was built by D.A. Flentrop in the Netherlands. In 2002, we added new ranks to our instrument. In the spring of 2008, an article in San Francisco Classical Voice about the dedication of a new organ in San Francisco proceeded to identify the top ten organs in the Bay Area. The article listed St. Mark's Flentrop organ in the top ten. Read the article by clicking here
