He often utilizes organs and historical instruments within his compositions, blending the old and the new.

Hillegondakerk is a late Gothic church building located in the Hillegersberg neighborhood of Rotterdam. Originally constructed in 1480 and dedicated to Saint Hillegonda, it underwent significant renovations in the 19th century led by architect Johannes van den Hoven, resulting in a neo-Gothic style exterior while retaining elements of its medieval origins. The church is recognized for its acoustics, making it a venue occasionally used for musical performances. It currently functions as part of the Protestant Church in the Netherlands and remains an active place of worship alongside its cultural use. The building’s interior features stained glass windows and a prominent organ, both contributing to its unique atmosphere.
