Yes listening to this young man I have wept with sublime joy and peace. He not only plays beautifully but in my humble opinion he has been touched by God as well.
When I was a lad around 7&8 years of age, I use to hear these melodies in my inner mind, and they would make me feel happy. Here now today, I am 80 years, and I am still happy to hear Your playing is Truly Wonderful. Thank you for Sharing the God Given Gift with us. Richard Blocher
I'm torn between St. Baaf's and Liverpool Cathedral for most epic organs, and Gert's improvisation of 'Land of Hope and Glory' on Liverpool's Willis & Sons organ is beyond glorious.
Fabulous! I have to view and hear it again and again! Gert and the music are one! His improvisations are unbelievable! And his proud father.... Wonderful!
Gert, het is geweldig jou zo zien te spelen, het is elke keer weer genieten hoe vrij en ongedwongen de klanken uit het orgel door jou toedoen te beluisteren zijn.
Gert van Hoef Excellent!! Amazing, very nice Thank you, thank you very much for sharing so much virtuosity. A very cordial greating from Tabasco, Villahermosa, Mexico . ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Gert, you NAILED it!!!!! Stunning improvisation performance. For you to play, not look at your hands and be your own registrant is very impressive indeed. Your talent continues to reach higher levels as you progress. Thank you for this video and for sharing your God-given talent. So I say Thumbs up up up 👍 👍 👍 👍
@@jojo-mx4ro, it is an expression that is used to comment on the successful or skillful completion/performance of something. Gert improvisation was excellent and the fact that he was his own registrant proves his skills and musicality. It is a compliment when a person is told, "you nailed that performance". I hope you have heard of the expression, "hit the nail on the head"? It was an outstanding performance.😊
It is by re - looking at your videos, that I realise what an extraordinary player you have always been. Your improvisations are unique. Every time you play on this exquisite organ I am filled with joy.
Amazing. Thank you for putting this lovely music into the world. Your wonderful talent is apparent even to a classical music novice like me. I am humbled and moved by this piece--really, thank you again!
That's the most confusing looking organ console I've ever seen, but it Gert handles it masterfully, as always! Thank you Gert for a wonderful improvisation!
Well... It looks to me like it has rocker-style tabs for stops, and a total of seven rows of tablets, three of them positioned above each of the stoprails and four set aside above all the stoprails on the left side of the console. I believe the three rows above each stoprail are for setting up three combination pistons on the left side just under the Choir (Manual I.) The four additional rows on the upper left wing of the console are probably the same idea but for setting up the four buttons on the right side below the Choir manual. None of this would be intended to make the organ complicated, but actually to simplify the organist's job by providing the ability to change registrations instantaneously.
I am from New Zealand and really enjoy your mu sic .You are a very talented gifted person and you really enjoy bringing joy to everyone Greetings to your wife and family .
Really glad you have this on video--- as an improvisation you will never really play it the same again. Good to have this one in archive. Pls do a reunion with Jan as registrant....it will be great as well.
I love your lively improvisions -- your talent brings out the full character of the melody in ways that are a treat to the ear. You make it look so easy! I wish you would upload even more videos -- I watch them all and share them with my friends! Greetings from San Francisco, California!
Geen EEN mond kan beskryf wat die ongelooflike talentvolle jong man met TWEE hande en voete vir ons TWEE ore laat hoor. Dankie Gert (en medewerkers), dat jy ons deelgenoot maak van jou kosbare talent!
Thank you Gert. I enjoyed the rather breezy improvisation that you wove around two very famliar tunes that are among my favorite hymns; Thine Is the Glory and Abide With Me. The Handel tune is rather regal, to me. The melody and chord progressions in Abide With Me which support the melody always have brought comfort to my soul. It continues to speak to me since I was a child. Thanks for continuing to share with us your love of music and for bringing us interesting music played on such historic instruments from a land I can only hope one day to visit.
This video made my day, Gert! I am attending your concert next Saturday, and I so look forward to hearing you play live. Also, I would love to meet yoy afterwards! You have a magnificent future ahead. Ciao from an American traveling tbrough Barcelona on my way back to the Netherlands and then home.
Прекрасная музыка, прекрасная импровизация. Спасибо за твое замечательное исполнение. Всегда следим за твоим творчеством . Пусто Бог хранит и благословит тебя.Еще раз большое спасибо.
Sin duda es emocionante ver como éste maravilloso ser humano hace cantar a un gigante hermoso hecho de metal ,aire , madera y electrónica ,la gama de sonidos al unísono es fantástica, gracias.
Wat speel je weer ontzettend mooi, Gert. Ik hoop op 9 maart a.s.erbij te zijn in Nijkerk, als jij speelt EN, niet te vergeten Wouter Harbers. Dat wordt dubbelop genieten!!!
Love this music As an organist myself I could never match these Beautiful players even though I studied music And play all woodwind And piano that pipe is a beast it takes a lot of Concentration and. Athleticism to play Love to watch every one Mastwe all. That beautiful Instrument. Love love... Always. Brian
Hallo Gert, Ik volg je al jaren op youtube en geniet steeds meer naar mate je volwassener wordt. Het lijkt wel of je spel steeds voller wordt. Wellicht door het gezinnetje wat je nu hebt met je lieve vrouw en kind. Mooie inprovisaties heb je de laatste tijd gemaakt, ik geniet er elke dag van!!!! Kom eens naar de grote kerk in Vlaardingen voor een concert?. Daar heb ik in mn jonge jaren nog les op gehad van Gijs de Graaf. Het zo'n mooi orgel!! Ik volg je agenda !!! Ga vooral door zeker met je inprovisaties. Ik blijf je volgen!!!!!!!
Yes listening to this young man I have wept with sublime joy and peace. He not only plays beautifully but in my humble opinion he has been touched by God as well.
Man wat klinkt dat mooi! Een groots orgel in de handen van een geweldige muzikant, dan krijg je zoiets!👍👍👌
I listen to this at least once a week!
All the world loves Gert. I could watch and listen for hours and get nothing done but lifting my inner soul to new heights of rapture.
C'est très bien dit.

Thanks. That’s all I can say. Reminding us all that it is all done to the glory of God!
This boy is incredilble! The music flows from his hands and from his heart! Absolutely natural, genious production! I can't bore it...
He is not a Boy, he is a young man and a incredible artist.
Great new version for this wonderful hymn. Inspirational. How can anyone have left a negative......I note one person has.
This is a great performance.
Ignore the one, I have :)
Gert you
Are one of the all time finest organ artiists!!! Please come to the U.S.
Who is thanking the wood
Nobody?
Good to know
David Gates : Gert better stays in Europe, to play for the people on this continent. The rest of the world can listen to RUclips and order his CD's.

Giving to you all this talent, God showed once more his great love for humanity.

Amazing. Thank you for putting this lovely music into the world. Your wonderful talent is apparent even to a classical music novice like me. I am humbled and moved by this piece--really, thank you again!

Thanks for the correction.

Fantasztikus volt! Szívből gratulálok! :)
I wish that the 100 “thumbs down” people would explain to me why they had to do it. Would be interesting. I myself love this Interpretation.
They're in Australia and New Zealand, and they are therefore really "thumbs up". It's the only logical explanation! :-)
Super organiste pour tous les styles.... Bravo.
Begeisternd und berührend, DANKE Gert !!!!
It's magic, thank you for this beautiful music.
Didn't recognize this at all, still enjoyed your performance...Excellent job...you are getting so much better!
