Hi, I'm a young musician of 16 and I wanted to leave, together with the others, my testimony, albeit small. When I was a child I couldn't stand Bach, because of the severity of my music teacher. Thanks to Geru I discovered the magnificence of his masterpieces. Thanks to Geru, already at the age of 13 I listened to his works every day. Thanks to Geru I discovered the wonderful art of counterpoint in his compositions. Thanks to Geru I studied his scores directly, following the music... I can't stop thanking him... THANK YOU GERU! I will never forget you. The news of his death left a void in my heart. I hope that someone will complete his beloved project to which he has dedicated infinite time: that of digitizing all Bach's scores with the scrolling project... Condolences to all those who loved him, even from behind a screen, like us.
rest in peace, fellow score video maker you have been an inspiration for all of us who share the same passions of those who listen and study to classical music, and those who make similar content we will never forget you
Rest in Peace Gerubach. You were the motivation to create a channel in a format similar to yours and spread the wonder of classical music. May God comfort the hearts of family and friends.
Many on YT know me as a commentator on Bach and the Baroque, partly due to my playing the organ since my 20's. So when I say that Gerubach's massive effort here was one of the supreme contributions on YT to Bach's music, and music in general, I am sure a vast majority of fellow Geru followers will agree with me. Rest well, Geru. Hopefully your work will remain on YT for many years to come, so future fans of Bach can also enjoy the fruits of your labour.
I've learned a lot from your comments on his videos. He was a legend and it's up to us to not forget that; luckily, we still have his grand work to inspire and learn from. Thank you for all these years of insight in this great school.
It was through your channel I discovered Bach's music. You have no idea how fundamental were your videos to me as a teenager, I would watch them for hours marvelled at the beautiful complexity of Bach. I wish you a peaceful farewell Geru. R.I.P. ❤
Rest in peace Martinez. Your videos are responsible for countless of hours of musical joy. You played a big part in helping people first discover Bach. I will pray for you and God bless you.
Gerubach endowed me with a passion for these pieces that I would not have acquired otherwise. Seeing these compositions unfold in real time and having the ability to follow along with the music and glimpse the harmony and melody is a unique way to develop musicianship. Thanks Gerubach, I sincerely will miss these videos.
Looks like I'm late. RIP Geru. Thank you for inspiring us with your music and helping us to understand complex concepts like in the Art of Fugue. Thank you for introducing me into the wondrous world of Bach.
Rest in Peace, Geru. A legend like you and magnificent work you have bestowed upon us will not be forgotten. I am sure Bach is awaiting you in Heaven. Thank you.
Oh, I'm getting too emotional listening to the Air whilst trying to write this comment... Thank you for all the scrolling scores you made. Rest in peace, Gerubach.
Rest well, Gerardo. What you made was art in and off itself. You combined audio and visual in a way that allows one to appreciate the music in an even deeper way. Your impact cannot be overstated as you inspired people to pick up where you've left off and make more visualizations of music even outside of just Bach.
I know i'm kinda late, but rest in peace man. You've really introduced many to the magic of Bach, and have impacted the classical community in a great way. May the glory of Bach guide your soul. ❤
Only now I've learned with great sadness that the generous lover of music who created this channel passed away. His videos helped me in learning, how and why Bach truly is the greatest composer. So many hours of learning and enjoyment. And I'm embarrassed to say that I can't say with any certainty that his effort and his gifts to us will last long and will never be forgotten, his legacy will always be at risk because of RUclips's stupid policies, which for me deserve to be called vandalic and anti-culture when applied to youtube channels of this kind.

It's truly saddening to learn of Gerubach's passing. Thanks to his work, I was able to understand Bach's music better. He inspired me to learn to read music sheets, and I’m certain his work has inspired and will continue to inspire many musicians around the world. I am sure that he now stands alongside Bach as one of the most significant contributors to Counterpoint and Baroque music. My eternal gratitude to Gerubach.
Rest in peace. I learned a lot from your videos how Bach constructed his own works, how he positioned the contrapuntal melodies and at the same time making graceful harmonic progressions. Your contents helped me a lot. Thank you.
Rest in peace gerubach, and thank you for opening me the doors to baroque music when I was 15, and making me discover Bach's keyboard partitas: without your videos I would never be a harpsichord player.
Your videos have always had a great impact on me. I am very saddened to hear about your passing away. Your work is a treasure for humanity. Thank you for everything
He’s up with Bach guys. Rest in peace , Gerubach , a legend of our time , and one of the greatest score makers who had walked the Earth together with us.
Rest in peace, my brother Gerubach. I enjoyed watching your videos, discovering Bach's genius and compositions with your amazing content. You contributed to the spread of human culture, sublime yet small expression of the divine into the world. I've just aknowledged your death. But faithful in the merciful God and in the omnipervasive life who always win, faithful as I am, I know you are well resting and we, all together, are going to meet again. You won't be forgotten, Gerubach. Pax tibi et universalis amor Dei sint.
I'm very sad about the news about the owner of this channel. I really enjoyed his work and all the fugues and good music that he transcribed for us. Rest in Peace, Bach Musics are proud of you ...
i was about to show this to my brother, is so sad that youtube are deleting your videos, it really broke my heart. I love so hard your job and they are destrocting this with no reason or right to do that. You're a warrior, this is almost the only place that i use to listen to Bach, my favorite compose ever, you're surely the youtuber that i see most. Thank you so much for keeping posting. I'm not working sadly, but i'll try to remember to support your job when i start to work
Rest in Peace Geru. Althou I did not know you, when I found that you are gone, I felt like some old friend of mine passed away, that I have not seen for a long time, and now I will never ever see again. Alas, you are not longer among us, your legacy will last forever. Your fan, Gabriel
If anyone wants to assume the mantle of gerubach, here are some more or less major works yet to be scrolled: Cantatas: Leipzig cantatas, secular cantatas Masses: Kyrie-Gloria masses, Sanctuses Chorale preludes: Schübler Chorales, The Great Eighteen Chorale Preludes, miscellaneous chorale preludes

Never listened to this Suite in full before now!! The fugue in the overture is spectacular and the gigue is a little heavy with the trumpets and timpani!!! haha thank you Geru as always!
