Gert. Ich hätte gerne die Noten von deinem Video Abide with me.
I tried for months to play what I heard you do with only partial success. But I was delighted when you had published it. I bought it and have played it in a service. Thank you for presenting and writing music we average organists can (not without effort ! ) play.
Christian verweij leuk goed gaat naar kerk orgel 👌😁👍
I am in ICU now recovering from 4 hours of being under during heart surgery. As I was waiting for the nurse to wheel me into surgery this morning, l had time to play your piece “Abide with me “. I have listened to it hundreds of times since i commented on it two years ago. As I listened again before surgery this morning, the peace and assurance of the Master came over me and I knew whatever happens Jesus and I would never be separated. Thank you for playing it just for me today John Geels
What a wonderful comment! Thank you for sharing this with us and the God of all comfort be with you.
Had the same experience. Metastasen deep in my head. Churgeriy. But i'm still a life. Hope never dies. And the trust in God also.
I love this kid. He took a beloved old hymn we’ve all sang and turned it into a Bach cantata. He’s a modern day Furruccio Busoni.
I love it when young people behave and perform their lives as if they were around for an hundred years.
I praise this kids Parents.
You are so right.

Yikes! Typo’s.....I swear I write my comments correctly, and the master computer in Utah screws them up. Lol!
David, I agree with you and a lot of times he doesn't have music and he remembers the whole song and many more!
Terry Purvis
....the beginning is haunting, and played with such affection.....though I feel the piece is an Ode..a farewell to Western Civilization. Will this young man marry and have many children (as JSB did)....probably not.
I’m also to blame.
“Abide with me oh Lord, fast falls the evening tide”. The metaphors are everywhere to be seen.
There is an excellent arrangement of Handel’s Largo by an English organist played on a Willis Organ in a beautiful dark Victorian gothic church in England. The console is set within an inglenook and a springer arch all in carved oak cabinetry. Look it up on RUclips and just listen. It’s also hauntingly sublime and played as if the casket was in repose in the Sanctuary. Lol!
It too is an Ode to the West. These glorious empty churches. What will become of them when “the religion of peace” take over....as they multiply in replication like mattress critters. It won’t be pretty.
@@Wanamaker1946, Gert is married to Marjolein and they have a little son, Thomas. His first birthday is tomorrow on the 11th. Thanks for the You Tube suggestion. :)
I love to here this beautiful hymn. I play it over and over and over. I can hear Jesus saying to me, abide with me and I will abide with you always and through all eternity. Thank you my Jesus and I thank Jesus for you Gert. John Geels
Muy inspirador. Gracias Gert. Desde Chile.
Henry Lyte was dying of tuberculosis at age 45 when he wrote the lyrics of Abide With Me. Your improvisation marvelously captures the calm, serene, beautiful and solid faith expressed by Rev. Lyte. Thank you!
Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide;
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me.
Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;
Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see-
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.
I need Thy presence every passing hour;
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s pow’r?
Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness;
Where is death’s sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.
Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies;
Heav’n’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee;
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.
Warwick Aiken.That was a beautiful rendition of ABIDE WITH ME.When my dad died in 1946 and I was 9 years old that was the song the music was at the cemetery when the procession walked in.My dad graduated from the Chicago Conservatory in 1911 and was a church organist,Pipe organ & piano tuner along with 4 of his six sons including me.I listen frequently to PIPE DREAMS on NPR with Michael Barrone as Pipe Organ music is my favorite.
@@rogergroot2950 Abide With Me has always been special to me, but I can certainly understand why it is particularly meaningful for you. It is a very comforting hymn at times of stress or death. I also enjoy Pipe Dreams, but must say I mostly enjoy Gert van Hoef's music and look forward to his new creations.
I couldn't help but cry. This is just beautiful. I imagine this is what heaven sounds like!
I used to think that it WAS Gert playing in these videos but now I believe it is the Divine itself.
He is definitely a gift from God. I watched him play another piece and wept because it came to me that perhaps some of those in attendance may have been those who, during the German Occupation by Hitler were reduced to eating tulip bulbs in order to survive. He even looks almost angelic when he plays and one can see that the music fills him with joy, and those of us who love music deeply can understand that. It touches our very souls bring us into the presence of Almighty God.
Abide with me, of my favorite pieces of music!
Mike no one can ever beetthis tune it makes me cry ever time I hear it it is so moving iPlay it a lot it so wonderful xxx,mike I know it in Latin and it’s all the better for it xxx Mike a Catholic brought up by nuns but lovely nuns I had no problem s as a youngster I was one off the lucky ones xx mike
Prachtige muziek.
Rustgevend voor mijn man met vasculaire dementie.
We luisteren er dagelijks naar!
Je hebt een mooie gave Gert!!!
O, my! I wish there were an icon to the left of the "thumbs up", to stand for "Love this!"
Beautiful. I could sit and listen to this for hours
What a amazing sound on this organ. I love this hymn. I want to cry and smile at the same time.
Beautiful Gert, beautiful!!!! Thank you for sharing this graceful song that obviously you put your heart into it. I admire that in you. Thank you for another classic video. I would like to wish your little son, Thomas, Happy First Birthday on Dec. 11th. You have a lovely family.
You're absolutely right Terry, he does put his hart in it
Het Knolorgel is een beroemd orgel.
Zit alles op en aan wat een orgel groots maakt.
Ich finde es immer wieder faszinierend, wie man romantische Musik auf niederländischen Orgeln darstellen kann. Ein 'Bravo' für Hrn. van Hoef
What a gifted young man, such a lovely improvisation, such musicianship! Thank you Gert!
Wunderschön!!
wonderful improvisation Gert. Beautifully played.
This is the best organ recording of this hymn I've ever heard.
Well done!!
Very nice, I liked it. 👍 I myself play this choral in a similar way of style, since I'm an improvisationist at the organ, too.
I thank you for this, Abide With Me was played at my mothers funeral and my nieces funeral. It means a lot to me.
Same here. It was my mother's favourite. She knew every word of every verse. This is the most beautiful arrangement I've heard.
Vraiment très apaisant, mélodieux, rempli de sérénité et ne pouvant inspirer que de bons sentiments humanistes universels. Once more, thanks a lot, Gert
Gerd, you played it brilliantly. Start composing, you have everything you need to do it: talent, instrumental abilities, inspiration, an incredible feeling of music. Time to sail out on wide, musical waters.
Thanks! Keep playing like that. Forever
Reverently Beautiful.God Bless you for sharing.RB
Again, Gert, your originality in creating a fresh face for this old and familiar hymn is warm, tender and thoughtful. Thank you so much for sharing your artistry with us.
Je viens d ecouter Gert depuis 6h en non stop? It's a so great moment! Whaou. GENIALISSIME. Je le recommande a toutes mes connaissances et amis. Encore 1000merci pour cette superbe musique.
Ein sehr schönes Lied das Gefühlvolle Orgelspielen mag ich sehr.
Reverend Lyte wrote the words on his last evening at the lower church in the fishing town of Brixham south Devon before the next day starting
his journey to the south of France where he died within the year of consumption (TB). The church bells still ring out this Hymn every evening.
I just can't seem to get enough of Gert on the pipe organ. Thank you and please keep us bathed in such beautiful music.
When I listen to this hymn I always think about the those young men who must have sung this in the second world war wounded to make a free Europe . This is a nice tribute to this.
There are no words. Simply and utterly beautiful.
Very beautiful. Thank you for letting me listen to it.
Inspired selections. Your choices continue to be enjoyed by many who look forward to your next arrangements. Again, more Gert.
Wat een prachtige opname!
Prachtige hymn ... "Abide with me" werd door ons allen gezongen (in 't Engels) gedurende de begrafenis ceremonie van mijn beste en "longtime" vriend Michael Sexton ... Bedankt Gert ! ... Zalig Kerstmis !
Beautiful improvisation. It reminds me of Psalm 91:1.
Thanks, Gert, from cold Minnesota, USA. Warmth for my heart and ears. Gordon Houk
So eine fantastische Improvisation! Vielen, vielen Dank! Es rührt so mein Herz an! So sehr....
It was said an angel sings a one of a kind song everytime a baby is born but it will be unknown. Hope mine sounds this way, very serene...
Genialer Basso Continuo! Ihr Improvisationsstil begeistert immer wieder von Neuem. Seit Jahren.
Wow. Danke für dieses schöne Stück. Ich liebe diese Registrierung. Eine Improvisation die mir zeigt, dass es noch einfühlsame Organisten gibt. Da höre ich gerne zu ❤️
Thank you, Gert. I just listened to this at the beginning of the Christmas season. Your arrangement is a beautiful reminder of the peace we often miss during December. It's also nice to know we share this hymn on both sides of the Atlantic!
Beautiful interpretation of a personal favorite hymn of mine. Thank you for sharing your gift of music on YT. Merry Christmas to you and your family from a fellow music lover in the State of North Carolina in the USA.
Make that two of us in NC :)
@@TerryP1922 Make that 3 of us in NC!
What a wonderful rendition, so appropriate for this Christmas day. Thank you Gert for all your beautiful music, so moving.
Thank you Gert for your lovely interpretation of this hymn. It was one my maternal grandmother loved dearly, and soothed me with when she sang it to me as a little boy. May God bless and keep you, Marjolein, and Thomas.
After a while I just sat and worshipped my Heiland!
So so beautiful Gert!!!
Dank Gert voor de troost nu mijn vrouw is overleden.
Veel sterkte met het verwerken van uw verlies! Wat prachtig dat deze muziek u troost geeft.
Thanks Gert! Good luck!
A wonderful improvisation. Thank You very much Gert!
Young man you played this so beautifully ! Calm and reverent . Thank you so much you are very talented,a gift from GOD. 👌
This is my favorit song. Well done Gert!!
So very very beatutifully played! 😢😢
I never know for sure what to write either "once again' or "as usual" when your playing and interpretation inspires me with every note. This is one of my favorite hymns as well. Thank you, thank you, dank je!
Thanks for letting me listen
Beautiful.
Wunderbar, naturlich. Viellen Dank, Gert!
Beautiful, love this music much
Wat een prachtig spel, en wat een bijzondere en unieke klank heeft dit orgel...en die acoustiek! Geweldig.
En een prachtige hymne. Blijf bij mij Heer.
Shalom Gert! Blijf dicht bij Hem...
Moge onze Abba jou en je gezin rijkelijk zegenen.
Bravo ! You are just wonderful !
Great to listen to as always. Would have loved to back in my old home town for the concert on December 14.
Very Beautiful! What a wonderful talent God has given this young man..
Simply beautiful!
Wundervoll ! Vielen Dank Gert !
Der Herr segne Dich und Dein spielen ! Hab eine friedliche Weihnachtszeit für Dich und Deine Familie !
Beautiful!
Very nicely played Gert, you have recorded this hymn in a flowing gentle relaxed style that makes it easy to listen to . many thanks for sharing the video.
One of the most beautiful hymns ever written. Thank you.
My dad is dying right now. This put me to tears but also gave me hope. Thank you Gert.
I’m very sorry to hear about your father Eli!
Gert van Hoef . Thanks brother!
Gert makes the music and organ come alive!
Beautiful playing, Gert.
Bravo! Faktiskt riktigt mäktigt!
Merci pour ce moment de grâce.💐☺😍💐
Que bonito é este hino. Amei a improvisação.
Prachtig, het lied van mijn vader, zo schitterend gespeeld, dank Ger, ik heb al veel van je spel genoten!
Thank you Gert 🙏✨
Transposing us into another realm. Beautiful.
So very beautiful. Thank you Gert 🙂
So beautiful and serene! The Boardwalk Hall organ in Atlantic City is waiting for you to make it come alive with your talent!
American Arrogance.
abnormallyfunny Jealous?
Very beautiful. Thank you for playing for us.
Amazing!!!!!
Awesome arrangement of this hymn Gert!
Prachtig gespeeld Gert! In al die jaren op het JFC Barneveld nooit geweten dat jij dit deed.. Chapeau, ontzettend knap!
Prachtig Gert! heerlijk rustig en medidatief!
Brilliant! Simply brilliant
Beautiful, thankyou for posting!
Heel mooi Gert, dit is zo’n mooi lied, het ontroert me iedere keer opnieuw.
Gert, your occupation in Heaven is settled. The Spirit rejoice in you exercising your talent. :) 🙏
In a word..."beautiful"
Another lovely old hymn, Gert. But during the introduction I kept hearing snippets of
"A Whiter Shade of Pale" (Procol Harum)
Eh, maybe it's just me, a flashback to my misspent youth.
Carry on!
Oh, and Merry Christmas to you and your family and friends.
Yes you did, like a number of pop hits it was pinched from classical works, that's why they were good.
This is what I realized, too! Whether accidentally or explicitly wanted, it is indeed suitable for the character of this hymn here.
I heard it also, the Procol Harum tune based is Bach's Air on the G String. The descending bass line is unmistakeable. Gert is smart to pay tribute to the man who created such harmonies, just as others have, like Procol Harum. Such a class act!
I consider "A Whiter Shade of Pale" (Procol Harum) in the genre of classical music.
@@davidwright640 A Whiter Shade is based on Bach's Air on the G String. Love the Procol Harum tune, also.
Very nice, and I personally love the use of the tremulants, not something you hear too often
Beautiful work, again, as always!
Amazing !
It's nice to see a young man wearing leather shoes, not sneakers.
@mpkunz6336 You're right, but I still prefer to see leather footwear. Just old fashioned, I guess.
Woorden kunnen niet uitdrukken hoe prachtig dit is. Dank je wel Gert.
Many thanks.
Prachtig gespeeld! Okay, that's it, je komt naar Alberta, Canada! We zoeken wel een mooi orger voor je uit! Opgegroeid in Hilversum, geemigreerd naar Canada toen ik 26 was, was mijn favoriete muziek instrument het kerk orgel. Ik kan zelf een beetje spelen, maar je bent mij lichtjaren vooruit. Ik kan zo uren genieten van jouw spelen. Jouw renditie van Bach's Passacaglia is ook zo mooi, een van mijn favorite stukken.
Thank You Gert!
really nice Gert!
