Francesca Ajossa is the main organist of the Church in ‘t Woudt (NL) since 2020. The organ was built in 1970 by the organ builder J. de Koff & Zoon.

On the initiative of Albert Moerman, Francesca’s predecessor, the organ was substantially altered between 1986-1987 by Henk van Eeken and Gert van Buuren. The organ was re-intonated and the windpressure lowered from 76mm. WK to 55mm. WK. In addition, the discant of the Prestant 8′ was made double, a new wedge-shaped bellow was installed and the temperament changed to a modified meantone temperament by the design of Harald Vogel. Last, the organ case was remodelled to a renaissance-like appearance and painted by Cornelis Verboom.

The organ’s current disposition is as follows:

• Manual 1: Preastant 8′ I-II (C-F# in Holpijp) – Holpijp 8′ – Octaef 4′ – Mixtuur 11/3 3-4 strong
• Manual 2: Baertpijp 8′ – Fluyt 4′ – Gemshoorn 2′ – Sesquialtera 2 2/3 2-strong (starting from f)
• Pedal: Bourdon 16′
• Couplers: manual 1 to 2 – pedal to manual 1 – pedal to manual 2
