Hartelijk bedankt vanuit Verenigde Staten! voor uw concert hier! Hier geboren van Rotterdammers die kwamen hier vanuit Rotterdam in 1956. Duidelijk, u heeft een groot liefde en geloof voor onze eeuwige Vader en Heere Jezus. Het klinkt wel vol in uw spelen van “Hoe Groot Zijt Gij”…. Prijs de Heer! In English: A hearty thanks from the United States for your concert here! Born here from Rotterdammers who came here in 1956. Obviously, you have a great love and belief for our Eternal Father and Lord Jesus. It sounds full thereof in your playing of “How Great Thou Art”… Praise the Lord!

[@keithlackenby]

There is no finer way to spend a cold winter night than basking in the warm glow of Gert's music. Thank you!

[@j.westerop7120]

Wat leuk omdit oude vertrouwde geluid weer te horen. Als ik het goed heb is dit het orgel uit de voormalige Westduinkerk in Den Haag. Iedere zondag een feest! We wonen al jaren niet meer in Den Haag en die mooie kerk is intussen gesloopt, Was ook een staaltje van architectuur begin van de eeuw. Wat een herinneringen! Jasper Westerop, Goes inen al jaren

[@alisonmoffitt1051]

Listening to this again on New Year’s Eve and I’m transported to the heavens with the indescribable beauty of the music and passion with which it’s played. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jonathanumstead4608]

George Beverly Shea, who loved to sing How Great Thou Art more than any other hymn when he was with the Billy Graham Crusades, is certainly smiling down from above as he heard ÿour beautiful improvisation of that timeless hymn and the rest of the concert, indeed!!❤ Blessings again for another superb, heartfelt livestream for us to enjoy again and again!!

[@mariaflach7306]

Seit vielen Jahren höre ich ihre wunderbare Orgelmusik, schon oft hat sie mir in schweren Momenten weiter geholfen weil sie irgendwie wohl von unserem Herrn inspiriert wurde. Danke dafür. Alles Gute für Sie und Ihre Familie.

[@m.b.v.jansen7116]

Gert levert altijd kwaliteit en inspiratie met zijn orgelspel! Dank

Lieber Gert, wieder einmal hast Du eine wunderbare Orgel auf schönste Art zum Singen gebracht - vielen Dank!

[@edgartorbert819]

A marvelous concert made all the more enjoyable by Gert's introductions of the pieces and witness of his faith. Difficult to imagine a more perfect combination of musician, instrument, and program. Live stream took this concert to another level. Thank you, Gert.

[@isabellenowak9792]

[@TerryP1922]

WOW!!!!Superb concert!!!! The program was so delightful, but your improvisations are always a stellar addition. Gert, your music feels like a lasso that wraps around our hearts and pulls us into your fantastic world of organ music. This concert and your Christmas CD surely are a great way to start the season of Advent. Thank you and the team for sharing your talent with us once again. May your music heal those who are less fortunate at this time. Happy holidays/Merry Christmas to you Gert, your family, and all the global fans.

[@darwinhoffman6397]

I have always been a big fan of the pipe organ and wow Gert van Hoef always gives great meaning to all the pieces played on the organ, may you continue to do so.

[@manolorenzo]

Muchas gracias Gert, Que El Eterno te bendiga y puedas seguir deleitándonos con tus conciertos, que tanto nos llenan de satisfacción. Maravilloso concierto. Un cordial saludo desde España.

[@elizabethdent1984]

What a wonderful, beautiful and inspiring concert, Gert and Team! Every piece just kept building on each other. You played with such emotion and I am moved how much you love our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. You are such a blessing to me. Every concert of yours that I listen to gives me peace and the Joy of the Lord in my heart. Thank you so very much. ❤️🎶🙏

[@livarix]

Je hart, ziel en zaligheid in de muziek stoppen, wat is dit toch prachtig! Groot fan!

Very nice concert Gert! Hello from Ontario Canada! Your years of experience can be heard as there is more feeling in your music! Loved it ! Keep up the good work!

[@alisonmoffitt1051]

Thank you so much Gert and team. What a wonderful selection of great music, joyously played.

[@livarix]

Héél mooi! Dank aan Gert en alle mensen die hieraan hebben bijgedragen!

[@keithbolton5081]

Children of the light my favorite and glad you began with this beautiful organ piece

[@jonreynolds2863]

Listening in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Absolutely gorgeous!! Wonderful registrations, dynamics and tremendous playing!! Lord be with you and your family during this Christmas season!!

[@g.k.failla9389]

Thank you for the pre- Christmas gift of a new Livestream concert. I especially liked the Bach. Greetings to you, Marjolein and the boys. ( About the book on the console. I remember a similar book from an earlier livestream you said was of the Geneva Psalms). From Chicago, U.S.A.

[@carmenrupprecht4163]

What a visual as well as auditory outstanding presentation! Notice at 1:28:38 to 1:28:40 Gert's left hand pulls stops both from the right and left as he keeps playing.Then watch and listen as the left hand immediately plays a wonderful passage at 1:28:52 to 1:28:56, all of this on an instrument with an exceedingly heavy touch, using couplers. Bravo!

[@bernhardbaumann5593]

Herrlich klingende Orgel - und tolles Konzert!

[@jaapknegtmans8532]

Gert een geweldig concert bedankt

[@kelvinsmallwood6315]

[@Emerald_Acre_OH]

Thank you for the concert, Gert! I just started to watch. That is a beautiful instrument! I love that it appears you have a Bible on the music-stand right beside your music.

[@DickDekker]

It was wonderful Gert Thank you

[@albertwessels71]

dank voor het mooie concert.

[@jonathanumstead4608]

Simply profound to see and hear you glorifying more and more with each piece as you play them . The wonderful improvisaties of the hymns and the other beautiful works by Bach, Zwart and others to lift our spirits to new levels of Praise to our Lord on High!! Thanks so much, Gert and team for another wonderful concert. Blessings to All in the Christmas season ahead!!❤ 🙏

[@donnaterkildsen830]

[@eduardbodmer8641]

❤Mega, es fehlen mir die Worte es ist eine schöne Orgel

[@charlesrae3793]

Another inspiring concert from Gert. Just the tonic for these dark times.

[@kesmarn]

A beautiful verbal introduction to the "Magnificat." And the music itself is perfection, of course.. Thank you so much. I'm listening to this in May -- Mary's month!

[@susannememminger9180]

Großartig, danke sehr.

[@gerhardmischak7753]

Very Good and long Conzert. Thank you Gert. ❤

[@jolandavonk5961]

Prachtig Gert. Zo knap ook met de registratie. Top.

[@annemackellar6293]

What a wonderful concert. Gert, well done pulling your own stops. That was hard work, and I appreciate your effort. I lost Live Chat somehow, don't know why, so via this message, I wish all Gert's fans a Happy and Peaceful Christmas. Happy Christmas to the van Hoef family. Xx🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤

[@janetplant1322]

Wonderful concert! Thank you 😊

[@pwjmsmit]

Inderdaad Ger het is alweer een tijdje geleden dat jij weer orgel bespeelde op jouw You Tube kanaal! Ook was dit weer de moeite waard! Dank!😀🎹🎼🎵🎶👍

[@warwickaiken9237]

Beautiful and inspiring! Thank you.

[@alicerijnberk8443]

Dank je wel.

[@chet146]

Thanks a lot, Dear Gert!❤️

[@adriandegraaf2444]

Phenomenal, Gert. Come to Australia!!!!

[@AlbertEising]

Mooi orgelspel, en wat een passie gaat van je spel uit. 😊

[@lugra59]

Sei grande spero di vederti presto in concerto a Bergamo

[@peternaryd_operasinger]

Wonderful concert Gert!🤗👏👏👏👏

[@TomaszDrzewiecki-i5n]

BWV 147 - simply the best! :)

[@gerhardmischak7753]

Thank you Gert ❤

[@saltwatergal]

So wonderful to see and hear you in live stream mode again. Thank you and have a Happy and Blessed Christmas. ( PS. I especially like that treat stop😂- all organs should come with those as standard equipment)

[@ravanderploeg4171]

Gert , .Het is altijd weer, Verrassend .🎉..jouw , Presentatie en uitleg .mbt het Repertoire /Programma. In de Livestream. Super. 😊

[@panikaugust9176]

Es ist alles gesagt, trotzdem auch von mir ein Großartig, vielen Dank

[@phillipshepard6917]

I haven't listened to your playing lately. I was always amazed even by those early recordings. Great to hear you again.

[@peterpetiet7900]

Heb de rechtstreekse stream gemist, maar zal het zeker gaan bekijken / beluisteren !! Bedankt Gert !

[@arnovanderheiden1458]

Mooi concert! Het harde werken heeft als voordeel een geconcentreerde blik.. Dat ligt me toch meer dan de gelukzalige smile (a la Martin Mans) tijdens het spelen. Eigelijk was ik daardoor al afgehaakt met kijken naar de videos. Dit concert was eigenlijk weer eens als vanouds. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Complimenten

[@joszandstra2044]

Just realized that there was a live stream planned for tonight. Will watch the stream tomorrow

[@zofiapoulsen5549]

[@westminster860]

This would make a fantastic and different wedding march. Processional or recessional. Thanks Gert.

[@davidmajetniak2984]

« Hoe groot zijt Gij » 😘 ! …

[@olavipasanen4471]

At the old times they made more beautiful organs and with better quality, which shows in the keys.

[@richardsmith7004]

I'll say it because no one else will. Dear Gert, you need to teach French organists have to improvise. They ruin their concerts with a meaningless mass of notes at the end. You are the best!!!

[@Andrew.Prince]

Wow

[@haraldhubner1152]

Juhu😊

[@soijufamu5470]

❤🙏

[@yvesbrissette4074]

Very nice concert. You could have used the hands of Jan de Rooij ! You were a wonderful team.

[@Kaczorek2366]

42:27 - Drievoudige organen, hoe heten ze?

[@jonathangelderman5714]

Always enjoy your playing Gert! Question.....why are the keys on the bottom manual square while the top two are slanted?

[@livarix]

Mag ik vragen... Heb je wel eens een improvisatie op "A whiter shade of pale" gedaan? Inmiddels een lied gemaakt met bladmuziek, stappen gezet!

[@tjhwu725]

What notes do you have for "komt als kind'ren van het licht" ???

[@jenjinter]

Mijn zwager stond net bij de Ichtuskerk. Alles donker.

[@Marjolein-van-Hoef]

Het is alleen een online concert dit keer, wat vervelend dat hij voor een dichte deur stond!

[@PHPJN7]

Kan kloppen, vorige week opgenomen

[@jenjinter]

​@@Marjolein-van-HoefWas niet echt duidelijk in de omschrijving op KZbin.

[@ruthhammer5139]

I missed Marjolein. Praying she is well. I pray for you all and can't say how much I appreciate your wonderful music! We watch you on KZbin essentially every night since our son told us about you a few years ago.

[@sallywebb9270]

Whoops... I've lost the live chat 😢

[@isabellenowak9792]

Bonsoir Sally 🙋🏻‍♀️J'ai aussi perdu le chat en direct 😌

[@cyberquipment99]

Nice playing but the recording is distorted unlike your other great recordings...

[@renestolk9735]

Beste Marjolein en Gert kan ik ook antwoordt krijgen op mi9jn vragen ???

[@kencammenga4442]

Gert: I have sent you money many times via PayPal. I never get an acknowledgement from you. Now I'm starting to worry that someone else is receiving my donations.

[@GertvanHoeforganist]

Hi Ken! Could you send an email to [e-mail] ? Then we can look into it more!

[@ronwalker4849]

the organ concert is great, but the architecture of the "church" confirms the banality of the current era in it´s emptimess.

[@anandveeraraj8043]

Lovely!

[@darwinhoffman6397]

I have always been a big fan of the pipe organ and wow Gert van Hoef always gives great meaning to all the pieces played on the organ, may you continue to do so.
