Gert, I have watched you since you were young, l must say you have become quite an accomplished organist. You have brought me much joy hearing you play. And a good 👪 family too! A grand blessing from God. And your English is not yo bad either!
Extraordinaire!!!! In my humble opinion, the notes are on the sheet music for Gert to use as a guide, but the “real music” is ensconced in Gert’s heart and soul. I feel that is where he plays from. Such an amazing talent. I have been waiting for this concert from Hanley to be posted. Thank you, Gert, Marjolein, Mark, and Papa Van Hoef (Special Thank You's for all the videography) and the entire GVH team. I can't wait to see Part 2.
I agree entirely Terry. Gert is fantastic at using the written music combined with the capabilities of a particular instrument and mixing it all together with the emotions in his heart to create something ‘greater than the sum of its parts’.
Wonderful presentation. What a warm and welcoming environment for our Organ Hero and Marjolein--and of course Opa Guert--the great inspiration behind the camera.
YESSSS⚡️❣️🙏🏻 I Love You & have enjoyed watching your life & family grow, thank you for that, POWERFUL… ‘Onward Christian SOLDIERS’ … Yes I guess I AM❗️🔥🐉🤺⛑️🤖🦄🤴🏻🌎♾️🧎🏻♂️🗽👼🏻
Prachtig Concert ! In Engeland , Zowel Orgel Al's locatie is en blijft Bijzonder ! Heel mooi ! Gert en Marjolijn . Vooral.. ..ook.. Bach,,,, was Extra Genieten ! Dankjulliewel . Rinse en Maria
Thanks a million for posting this Part 1. I was unable to attend Hanley due to illness so delighted to hear this and see this wonderful concert. Blessings to all who made this treat video. Enjoying the GVH fan Club these days.
It was so good to be there and see you live after following your livestreams and videos for so long. During the pandemic one reason I wanted the lockdowns to end was so Gert could finally return to the UK. My teen son (whose musical taste is often quite different to mine!) now keeps humming ‘onward christian soldiers' around the house and loves to hear this video again.
A wonderful reminder of a fantastic experience, filled with music for the soul, with love and care for the heart. Thank you team Van Hoef for the time and effort preparing this for us. God Bless.
What a blissful reminder of a very special day. To see Team GvH present such a spectacular was such a pleasure. Thanks to all involved in hosting such a life affirming event. To see Gert live is one of the joys of my life. It was also such fun meeting for real those whom I recognised from the live chat. Roll on next year, for another great musical experience from Maestro van Hoef.
Thanks for putting up the first part of your return to Hanley. Mr. Willis would smile at every atom of his great instrument being used. On to Part 2! From Chicago, U.S.A.
Stunning! Words cannot give justice to this performance. The footwork alone in this snippet is just beyond magnificent. (Thank you Mr. Geurt VanHof!) Along with thousands and thousands of fellow RUclips fans (Terry Purvis being #1) we eagerly look forward to seeing the rest of the concert.
Very super as always! Why more/ most performers don't get? -- the use of and musical satisfaction of *a variety* of sound-loudness levels & of contrasting (simultaneous!) Legato and detached, articulation and phrasing, and changing beat (pulse) importance-- is beyond me. Even from the very beginning Gert gives us music and musicality not merely massive notes!
Excellent concert. I think I have seen two of yours concert earlier, but I didn't know that this was the fourth concert from this hall. Looking forward to the second part of it 😍
Merci pour l'invitation de ce soir à votre magnifique concert au Victoria hall de Hanley 🎶🎹🎵🎶Merci Gert et Marjolein 💕 🎶 Et à tout votre entourage qui rend cela possible ❤️Soyez bénis
Ontroerend prachtig gespeeld en dus dankbaar om hiervan te mogen genieten. Het is zo knap om de combinatie te zien van handen & voetenwerk en samenwerking met Marjolein en prachtig in beeld gebracht. Dank aan allen!
It was so good to attend the concert at Hanley (my 4th! ), and now it is such a pleasure to be able to watch the first half again on RUclips! Thank you Gert & Marjolein, and Guert and Mark for the wonderful videography :)
Excellent ! I remember when you and your sweet wife first appeared. This concert also very nice ♪ I’m looking forward to the continue. Thank you so much for your beautiful performance :)
I use to work for a pipe organ company as a case assembler before they laid off and went under. I've heard lots of people play organ and I can say you are 1 of the very few that perform on an organ so well, that you can hold an audience's interest the entire time and always apropriate the voices of the organ to become a kaleidoscope to the music and your performance. Nicely done.
Thankyou Gert and all the GVH Team for another scintillating and extraordinary Part 1. video of your 4th visit to Hanley. Can't wait for the Part 2. to appear. Gert, you really are an absolutely incredible organist. You are on my playlist EVERY day.
I think i repeated the intro part the 50th time know. Gert i am loving your style so much! Go forward like that! When you come to Southern Germany?? I want to hear and see you live!!!
After all the hype i was unable to attend i was really gutted, i mistakenly double booked the same day to attend my son in law's brother's 40th party in Newmaket on the same day and only living a few miles from Hanley. Great to hear the event on youtube, i will have to wait till next time.
Ik ben nu al 4x live erbij geweest, en het is iedere keer weer een happening. Gelukkig hoeven we nu geen twee jaar te wachten om opnieuw ervan te genieten, volgend jaar augustus is het weer zover! 🌞
Always enjoy your concerts at Hanley and have had the privilege of being at a previous concert. On this occasion I would like to comment on the quality of the video production. The camera resolution meant I could read the names on the organ stops and the clarity and range of the audio meant I could hear all the bass through to treble on this magnificent organ. Hope to see you live at Hanley next time.
Your videos are great and I would like to repost your channel exactly on a nice platform named Gan Jing World. If this sounds interesting to you, please respond to me. Many thanks!
Een verschrikkelijk lelijk poppenkast orgel, denk zo electro pneumatisch. Al die knoppen, een kermis front, brr. Wordt een beetje orgel door de organist !
Gert,

Isabelle, Merci 🍁🍁

Will he ever perform in Portland, Oregon. I'd pay to see 🙏
An amazing performance so confidently played. The Prelude and Fugue in G by Bach was a little hurried for my liking but accurately played.
👌👌👌👌👍👍👏👏
melodia muito idêntica a um hino da CCB
Quanta polvere su quell'organo!
Mmm
Muchas gracias por darnos el placer de escuchar hermosas melodías .
Beste, ook de speeltafel, drama ! Het klinkt ook niet, dof, geen voorspraak, jammer, helaas. Brrrrr.
Een verschrikkelijk lelijk poppenkast orgel, denk zo electro pneumatisch. Al die knoppen, een kermis front, brr. Wordt een beetje orgel door de organist !
Bravo!
