A Farfisa is a brand of electronic combo organ that competed with the Vox Continental organ and was available from the 1960's until around 1982. Named as an abbreviation for the original manufacturer (Fabbriche Riunite di Fisarmoniche S.p.A), Farfisa combo organs had an important role not only in popular music but also among several early innovators of minimalist music.
