The organ was built by Johnny Verbeeck in St.-Job-in't-Goor, near Antwerp in 2001 for the De Rijk Family. The organ was presented in the Southern part of the Netherlands, and was sold to the South-Western part of The Netherlands. In 2009 it came into the ownership of Stefan Batist who brought it to the city of The Hague. The organ played at several local events and was part of an event at the Haarlem Orgelmuseum in 2011. In 2014 the organ was shipped to The United States of America, where it played at rallies in several states, including GA, PA, WI, MS, and MI.

Although the organ is considered to be a smaller sized organ, the crowds love to hear and play/hand crank the organ. A wide selection of music styles is available with the organ, including contemporary music pieces by Lady Gaga, SIA and Michael Jackson. The selection of music books also includes musical themes from movies and games as Frozen, James Bond and Super Mario Bros.
