[@toniposocco865]

I'm an organist, not so talented as you, Gert. It's so beautiful to see and listen to public singing. I appreciate so much Pomp and Circumstance March, with a lot of arrangement ... Very, very good, Gert. Thank you very much for your exhibition.

[@Railfan6675]

I see two beautiful people working together in perfect harmony. That was an amazing performance. The smiles on your faces says it all!! May God bless you both.

[@joanerhard454]

Railf

[@joanerhard454]

Very much blessed.

[@yofelipe1]

Sounds as good today as 3 years ago! Magnificent and included some of my all time favorites. Marjolein's smile is as big in today's concerts as this one.

[@mrstevebournias]

Gert is firstly n foremost a MUSICIAN and so everything inside of him is MUSIC and he plays things that people like and uplifts the human spirit BRAVO GERT u r a blessing to the ears and hearts of millions...

[@ricardoaristapuigferrat.829]

With Gert Van Hoef, organ music is taking a new impulse and his performances are vibrant and full of energy.

[@christopherreid2459]

Your improvisation on the soft voices of the organ was absolutely breathtaking.

[@richardbenitez7803]

I really would like to hear comments by those that know organ. I’m one of those “masses” that Gert is bringing the organ. Gert sounds good to me. He places lots of emotion and history into his playing. But what do i now (from States).

[@jadeowens3865]

Gert, first off. Congratulations on your engagement and your life together as husband and wife. I have been hoping she was the one. Second, you are so amazing. I wish I had a 10th of your talent. I love playing the organ, and do so in church on rare occasions. I shake when I play and people sing. Nerves. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. I hope you come do a tour in the United States someday soon. Many great organs here for you to play. Best wishes to you!

[@rolfschroder3821]

Man sieht eure Liebe ... Danke.

[@caseyflorida]

What a wonderful expression of appreciation to his English fans to begin with the British National Anthem!

[@geoffreyatherton4224]

Some of us at the concert were Welsh Irish and Scots. All British but I agree with your remark. ;-)

[@cvhharnes]

C'est vrai que ses fans anglais doivent apprécier le montage à deux balles qui fait croire à un public qui chante;

[@capacityplus]

I came from Northern Ireland with a friend primarily to hear Gert play live. I was not disappointed. I even got a picture standing with Gert.

[@johngee1628]

I also enjoyed the smiles of pleasure on Gert's and Marjolein's faces when the audience joined in singing "Land of Hope and Glory".

[@richardbenitez7803]

John Gee - the few times I’ve seen real organist do live performances, i can see they tend to be a special group of people. I remember my first live organ concert of at San Francisco symphony hall. The lady organist was so delighted to be playing i thought she was personally going to fly off the organ and bump her head on the ceiling. She was totally funny and joyful.

[@williamevans3902]

Bravo Gert, my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this. Great variety, great energy, great playing. You made the most of the organ's beautiful mellow tone, and your full-bodied version of Pomp & Circumstance was one of the best I've heard on the organ. Bravo support team. You still can't beat a live performance, but your superb production values made this the next best. Gert and Marjolein, what a team, and now for life - warmest wishes to you both! William and Elena Evans

[@markwalkup1555]

Gert, outstanding. Always inspiring. And congratulations with your future wife !!! Mark

[@keithlackenby]

A delight to hear this outstanding concert again. Gert & Marjolein are a charming couple who bring untold happiness into our lives.

[@bruceinpb]

Simply beautiful!

[@BillofWatkinsville]

I have enjoyed everything I've heard you play, Gert. Thank you.

[@kevlutu]

Wow, those stoic Brits, Gert should have gotten a standing ovation for " Pomp and Circumstance " that was magnificent as was Largo Thanks for posting this beautiful concert. Kevin

[@johnball3487]

Wonderful Concert! Wish that you could come to the USA and give some Concerts!!! Bravo!!!

[@johnhowe50]

Gert I have just found you, but I won't lose you now.

[@johnharris8799]

Congratulations gert I wish you well on your Wedding day soon, God bless you both.

[@Bouncybon]

Gert, I hope you will come to England again and again in your career. Wishing you every happiness in your marriage.

[@alanpotts7764]

Bouncybon )

[@proxima1890]

think you are a talented organist, then the royal family invites to play at a wedding or funeral at Westminster Abbey....

[@deaconpaulsandersonocds4103]

Wishing you both every happiness in marriage and many congratulations. I am from England originally, now living near Chicago. Hope you both make it to Chicago someday. We need great music here, and great people to provide it. God bless you both!

[@evknoll1575]

God has richly blessed yoù with a special talent and you feel every note you play. Youŕ registrations are all wonderful and displays how the organ is the King of instruments..your wife is an immeasurable help to you and your performance--turning music and making stop adjustments. The video that moved me so much was when your wife was pregnant with your son and she was sitting on the organ with you and that your unborn child was hearing his Dad playing such beautiful music. God bless your family. I sometimes play one video after another and am thrilled with every one , especially watching your artistic hands and the movement of your feet.WONDERFUL. Thank you.

[@sallyjohansson6045]

That organ loves you!

[@geoffreyatherton4224]

This was a magnificent performance and privileged to be there. So enjoyable, Prachtige Concert Dank u vel Gert

[@geoffreyatherton4224]

Can I add that a recital at either of the Liverpool cathedrals would be wonderful.

[@teodorgodtfredteistedal9780]

I admire your wonderful organ playing. Thank you for these beautiful experiences you give us! Sincerely, Teodor Teistedal from Norway.

[@annemackellar6293]

I was lucky enough to be at this concert. It was magical. To see you play live was a privilege. Look forward to seeing you again in two years. Congratulations to you and your new wife.

[@cabinfever07]

Everything you'd ever want from an organist. Simply exquisite. An hour and a half of sheer entertainment.

[@smilefaxxe2557]

Enjoyed this very much!! The pure beauty of your play brought a little tear on my eye. Thank you for uploading!

[@rolfschroder3821]

BEAUTIFUL CONCERT!! LOVE THE WAY YOU PLAY THE ORGAN.

[@peterreece5966]

Absolutely Fabulous !!!!!!!

[@DHS11999]

Just brilliant!

[@jeffhughes1225]

First Gert congratulations on your engagement to Marjolein :) Congratulations also for completing your organ studies. Many thanks for coming back to Hanley and play an organ which you love (not as much as Marjolein i hope!!). Good to hear you have been invited back for another concert. Each time I'm unable to get there to listen to you play so thanks to KZbin, also thanks to your dad and grandfather for all the help and encouragement they have given you since you first played 'Silent Night' with two fingers.

[@edbolwijn3886]

Prachtig concert. Was weer genieten. Van harte met jullie voorgenomen huwelijk en Gods zegen gewenst.

[@jaapknegtmans8532]

Geweldig Gert en Marjolein om trots op te zijn ,ook de opname is prachtig Genoten!!!

[@RavenTimish-hackertimish]

Loving and knowing Classical and Baroque Music quite well, I'd say young Mr. Gert Van Hoef is continuing the great tradition of all Baroque Musicians: not only being a (great) performer but also being an amazingly good composer ! Clearly playing (t)his wonderful Music makes him very happy - and that's why he is SO incredibly good at it. And it makes the audience happy too - and that includes me - now what about you ? ❤😊😊❤

[@jandejong6498]

Gert, dit had je niet gedacht, toen je jaren geleden thuis achter het elektronisch orgel zat te spelen....! HULDE!!

[@thomasbouvier5262]

Hier stehen so viel begeisterte Kommentare: Da fällt mir gar nicht mehr ein als "Stimmt alles." Alles Gute für Eure Liebe und Euer gemeinsames Leben, Marjolein und Gert

[@MagicalPipes]

A Truly Golden Performance Gert and Marjolein Heel Mooi

[@blackmore56]

Not are you so talented a musician, you also speak excellent English and now are marrying the wonderful Marjolein. Congratulations on all of those things. May I say god bless you both for the future. Love and respect from Southampton UK

[@b43xoit]

Yes, I have listened to many of Mr. van Hoef's performances here on KZbin and this is the first time I have heard him speak English.

[@Tocsin-Bang]

Congratulations to you both.

[@toreg.nyhammer6328]

Wonderful concert! 😃

[@joanerhard454]

Blessed.

[@HenryKompagnie]

Een prachtig concert. Daar blijf ik echt wel even voor zitten! :-)(En ook fraai in beeld gebracht.)

[@philclare15]

Wonderful concert! Glad I made it to Stoke this time. Thank you.

[@Zmusicbox]

Truly magnificent!

[@andreasseeful]

Wow Gert - diese Demonstration of the soft voices of the organ war wieder ein absolutes Highlight. Unbedingt anhören: 44:54 . Herzlichen Dank fürs Aufschalten.

[@aldskanser7880]

Gert jonge, ik ben positief jaloers op je. Ik speel geen instrument, maar de manier waarop jij je muzikale talenten weet te ontplooien, ik maak een diepe buiging voor je. Dank je wel, jullie beiden.

[@michaelh8233]

It was such a joy to attend your concert at Hanley once again, and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole performance! A wonderful varied programme, displaying the full range of such a magnificent instrument! Congratulations to Marjolein and yourself on your engagement, and best wishes for your forthcoming wedding! Looking forward to your next visit in 2019!

[@renebontje4845]

Prachtig concert dank jullie allebei

[@andrewveitch8515]

Such perfect entertainment this wet Saturday afternoon here in California. You definitely need to plan a tour to the USA when Covid is in the history books. So talented on such a beautiful instrument. Truly the King of all instruments.

[@fbinsbergen2618]

luister dit normaal niet, ben behoorlijk onder de indruk, meesterlijk, dank U.

[@miguelmorales7126]

Fabuloso!!! Se ve un Gert maduro, con ese mismo espíritu que le caracteriza. Gracias, Gert, por tu talento, gracia, simpatía y amor al Rey de los instrumentos musicales: Su Majestad El Órgano.

[@RavenTimish-hackertimish]

@@agems56 Yes, you are absolutely right, Sir ! Imho those who cannot appreciate this lovely Music and the perfect performance by Mr. Gert Van Hoef - even giving him "thumbs down" tells more about them selves (and their very negative, bad attitude) than they say something about this brilliant young Musician. They'd better shut up and do something useful, preferably make someone else happy - like Mr. Gert Van Hoef is doing all the time. ❤😊😊❤

[@Doug6412]

Just watched the video of you playing with your grandfather and now to this. What a beautiful journey.

[@soniacarlson1951]

That was spectacular!

[@99SpidermanFan]

WOW ! that was a phenomenal concert. And always presented in a professional and energetic maner. Bach's Cantata 29 and Viërne's Final were your best versions ever, I think... Thanks a lot for posting !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@davidpurdy6829]

This is what I've been waiting for! Thanks for posting! Can't wait to listen to it!

[@marcel911]

Albinoni, Sousa and Elgar were my favourite pieces from that concert. I have watched the 2015 concert a few times and it was a pleasure to attend this one in person.

[@catwoman3680]

I have been fortunate to come to both of your Conserts at Hanley. They were a real pleasure to watch, and yes you do have a definite charismatic connection with your audience. Looking forward to the next Consert in 2019. Untill then good luck to you both and congratulations on your engagement.

[@jobstvieten5086]

hier in Berlin in Zehlendorf, in der Paulus Kirche, haben SIE 2 neue Orgeln. und gerade die Französische Barock Orgel mit den Zimbel-Sternen . . . . .

[@erikahess1216]

[@organbuilder272]

That is quite an opening salve, Gert Well done. They loved it!.

Smiling to the solo singer at 27:48 (Pomp & Circumstance), her great voice blending nicely with the softening voices of the organ.

Amazing thanks

CONGRATULATIONS.

[@erdingtown]

Wonderful concert. Its a shame so few young people are in the audience.

In Holland and Belgium the organist is better known. Concerts tend to be full just based on these videos.

What a masterpiece, your translation of Adagio in G mineur by Albinoni. I just finished the tenth time listening.
