"Comfort ye , Comfort Ye My People" text by Martin Luther . Your playing this tune so beautifully and reverently brings such joy to my heart . God bless you and your family , and that gorgeous church .

Such a nice, calm reverent song to hear first thing in the morning and start my day on a good note. Peace to everyone in these troubled times. Thank you, Gert and Marjolein, through your music unite us all. Such a beautiful melody.

Quel talent qelle virtuosité qelle sensibilité. Merci beaucoup pour ces beaux moments passés en ta compagnie

Entièrement du même avis. Je passe de nombreuses fin de journées à me régaler d'écouter tous ses exploits sur KZread. Gert est un artiste que je vénère.

As this is the very first time i have heard you play your wonderful organ music Gert, i must say that i am really over the moon. I have recently lost my beautiful wife, and i find your music really helps me to relax,and still relate with her. Thankyou so much.

Thank you for your uplifting music that connects us through our hearts worldwide. This is your way of serving others. Stay home and stay well everybody!

Wat ontzettend mooi!!! Dank jullie wel voor deze prachtige vertolking!! Juist in deze donkere tijden brengen jullie Licht -" 'k zal mijn ziel, wat mij moog' treffen, tot de God mijns levens heffen...!!"☝💖🏫

Growing up in a Mennonite Church - we sang these words to this hymn tune. So very fitting in light of the virus situation facing the world today: Thank you for sharing your beautiful music with us. May you be richly blessed! Comfort, comfort O my people Speak of peace, now says our God. Comfort those who sit in darkness mourning neath their sorrows' load. Speak unto Jerusalem of the peace that waits for them. Tell of all the sins I cover and that warfare now is over.

Fern, I was an organist in an Episcopal church for years. We also sang Comfort, comfort O my people to this tune. Gert's selection of this tune really touched me as well given the scary times the world is in right now. We all need some comfort to get us through it. All the best to you, Gert and his family and fans across the world.

Growing up in a reformed church, We have sang this melody since I was a kid . It’s been one of my favourites. As far as I know it was composed for psalm42.

gérard DAVIN, bon rétablissement a vous

Opnieuw prachtig gespeeld. Het slotkoraal "Maar de Heer zal uitkomst geven" heeft veel te zeggen in deze tijd vol angst en onzekerheid. Dankjewel!

My favorite psalm for sure!!

3 a.m. in Oregon, all concerts have been CANCELLED here too. Rock and roll is my thing, but you're concerts are very special. Thankful.

Très jolie mélodie infiniment agréable à écouter et magnifiquement interprétée

Such a beautiful and peaceful piece of music. I love Mulder's compositions anyway, but this is particularly special. Gert as always really shows his understanding of his repertoire.

Psalm 42 was ook onze trouwtekst 45 jaar geleden, maar ik heb het nog nooit zo mooi horen spelen!👍

Gert your music is wonderful I truly appreciate it your hours.of practice show it is evident you really enjoy the organ and respect it .thank you for using your talent.for the world to see and hear praise God.almighty for the gift he has given you.

Listening to this bring goosebumps and tears to my eyes. Thank you.

A beautiful gift to us all Gert in such troubled times. Thank you so much 🙂

Thank you for giving us this beautiful gift at this difficult time.

Great playing as always Gert, especially welcome to lift the mood just now with this dreadful virus around us. You are a great escape & pleasure to hear & watch. Many thanks!

A beautiful rendition of Psalm 42. Thank you from 🇨🇦

Absolutely wonderful music. Thank you. X

Thank you Gert for recording and posting this for your fans around the world after your concert was cancelled. Much love to you and your family in these difficult times. Hearing you play always brings a smile to my face even when I'm feeling down or anxious.

One of the reasons I enjoy listening to your performances so much is your brilliant choices of registration. There are a lot of stops to choose from and you always seem to pick the best, which results in delightful contrasts of tones, and happy anticipation of what beautiful sound you are going to give us next. Thank you Gert and Marjolein for another wonderful performance.

concur. But sometimes I wish that Gert would take some 'liberties' with registration while playing Bach's organ pieces. In school, we were never allowed to change any stops during the performance, lest we be looked upon as "inauthentic Bach" players. @@ *

Hoe mooi is dat, maar de Heer zal uitkomst geven hij heeft de wereld zijn hand ook in deze duistere tijden. Bedankt Gert, heel inspirerend 🙏

Remind's me of my old Lutheran church service and their organ beautiful.

One of the great joys is hearing a great organist like Gert van Hoef!

Wonderful. Excellent!

Woke up at 4 a.m. for some reason, I find this very comforting. Thank you Gert! JWtg

Thank you Gert,Happy St Patrick's Day from Dublin Ireland,Health and Peace to you and Family. You are lifting spirits in all time. Music reaches everyone and is pure like you. Tommy☘️

Beautiful organ and exquisite playing! God bless and protect you and your family!

De muziek brengt de positieve kracht naar boven. Zoals ik ook tot mijn tweeling dochters zegt, blijf altijd uw pianomuziek spelen. Dank Gert voor de inspiratie.

Wonderful that was (from Australia) ...

Dziekuję za cudowne chwile z Twoją muzyką. Dajesz ludziom radość.

So graceful and wonderful.

Merveilleux, fantastic, ausgezeichnet..... Merci, thank you, Danke schoen.....

Being in the American hinterlands is funner with Gert's music playing. -- Your fan in Indianapolis, usa

Such beauty and Glory as you are playing this work with so much grace and dignity. Thanks again, Gert, for the best performances for the listening ear, heart and soul!🎶

Bravo tu es admirable

Just made my day. Thanks for your wonderful music Gert and team.

Never heard this piece before, and love it. Thank you!

magnificent!

Magnifique!! Grandiose!!! Merci👏

Thank you for introducing me to Mulder. That was marvellous!

Beautiful. Love that music. Keep up the excellent work.

Oh how splendid! As with many other tunes associated with Lutheran worship you perform I sing along. It's such a spiritual lift for me.

Wat was dit weer genieten van het mooie orgelspel en het mooie orgel!!

As always, your talent abounds. Stay healthy and safe.

Gert you are the best and nice organist of your generation !! Thank you my brother !

So good to see and hear you in these corona times! A well-known hymn also in Norway. Thanks!

Bravo, Bravo, Bravo, Gert!

Hi Gert, Someone gave me your name, and I listened to Psalm 42 , also I heard you play the Cantate and Fugue in D , so I looked and listened at more music played by you . I listened to your story, You sure are a gifted man, I so wish you were in Brisbane, Australia as I am fond of organ music, which no longer seems to be the norm in a church, I dislike a drum in the church I wish you lots of success and happiness, I am Dutch of origin, born in Naarden

Prachtig nieuw/oud orgel met mooie ronde klank. Fraaie registers en goed gekozen registraties. Heel plezierig om naar te luisteren.

Simply breathtaking, thanks Gert.

Uitmuntende spel met pragtige registrasie. Altyd lekker om na Gert te luister

Heel mooie uitvoering! Danks!

Gert..you are always an inspiration.

Thank you so much.

Hello Gert, This is new to my old ears, and I think it's beautiful as are the hands that play it! Thanks for all that you do.

This is a truly beautiful melody, which is why it's the most uploaded psalm on YT, by many organists. Lovely playing Gert, Klaas Jan Mulder's arrangement is still the gold standard. Let's hope the internet can carry the extra load in the coming months.

william evans really too bad the Dutch free reformed churches did away with it.

Thank you Gert for bringing us the gorgeous and interesting array of voices contained in this historic and well-maintained instrument. While I am not able to assign the names of the stops you used, nor whether the choices were speaking from wood or metal pipes, their indivudual sounds indicate the builder was a master at his trade! I like that the tremolo wasn't over bearing. It wasn't too heavy or too fast. I appreciate your masterful artistry as well as the repertoire you present. Bravo!

Een eerlijk orgel en een gigantische organist, thanks.

A wondrous piece! Of course played with great feeling and technique.

What a lovely performance, Gert. Thank you so very much.

Again, I thank You !!

That was absolutely beautiful! I'm so sorry and sad that the concert was canceled. I love listening and watching while your concerts on KZread.

Thank you from Grand Haven, Michigan. My favorite organ piece mostly beautifully performed! .

Out of this world! Thank you so much Gert! Belated congratulations to you and your lovely wife on your wedding (just heard the news!).

Thank you for your service!

A beautiful gesture. Stay safe and well. God bless!

Absolutely astounding!

Beautiful piece of music on the organ Gert, especially with the use of the tremulant that intercepts the wind supply so that you get puffs of wind instead of a steady stream as it goes into the pipes and the Vox Celeste stop. The Vox Celeste stop is tuned slightly sharp or flat to the other stops to create a vibrato effect.

I Love it. It is simply Very Beautiful.It gives wings to my Heart. Thank you for Sharing. much Love.RBlocher

¡¡¡ FANTASTICO,!!!

Hi Gert, Félicitations, for Your nice baby, boy, Your wife and You, are looking good,Thank's for Your nice and enjoying music, always well interpreted, friendly Jacques Québec Canada

Leuk en toepasselijk! Op mijn 71e verjaardag! Dank je, Gert!

Dank je wel Gert, prachtig!

what a blessing, to be sure! *

Prachtig gespeeld ,en een erg mooi orgel !!

Mooie fantasie van Klaas Jan Mulder en mooi gespeeld Gert.

Many thanks Gert

Een prachtige muzikale vertolking van deze psalm

thank you, your playing is wonderful.

Very good sounds!

Dankjewel voor dat mooie lied.

MagicalPipes :) Great work Gert and Marjolein

Amazing !

From a fan in Canada. Thank-you. Wonderful teamwork between you and Marjolein as always! As someone who has played church music for many years I find your playing truly inspiring. This seems to be a beautiful new instrument. In this regard there is a similar brand new Van den Heuvel organ installed in the Bethelkerk Lunteren. We have friends here that came from that church. Would love hear you record something on that organ sometime!

Mooi gespeeld Gert! Beleefde muziek.

Ahhhh... Very nice!

Bravo!

Overbekend, maar blijft een geweldige bewerking! Mooie registratie uitgezocht op dit prachtige Boogaard orgel.

wonderfull mooi

dank,mijn l.psalm.
