The Orgelpark Research Reports are published in cooperation with the Chair of Organ Studies at VU University Amsterdam. The Orgelpark Foundation established the Chair in 2010. Orgelpark Research Report #3 presents a selection of the lectures given in the course of the International Organ Improvisation Project at the Orgelpark. The project took place between 2008 and 2011.
