Dank je wel, Sietze. Zo goed. En zo eloquent ook, zonder moeilijke woorden maar met een gedachtenstroom die bij iedere afslag het gevoel geeft dat we op de goede weg zijn om te begrijpen wat muziek en musiceren betekent. Ik geniet al jaren van je aanwezigheid op KZread. Al dan niet improviserend. Het geeft me veel plezier om je nu te zien in je habitat, omringd door instrumenten, pratend over een essentieel onderwerp dat opeens volstrekt natuurlijk wordt.

This is an awesome take on improvisation. I'm gonna go back to basics and teach myself this way!

As a developmental psychologist, it is a great pleasure to listen to your thoughts, I deeply agree with them and can only confirm your philosophy! Thank you!

It was interesting and fascinating to listen to you, Mr de Vries. All the information about improvisation and how to learn to improvise, step by step, is explained excellently and differentiated by you. What a wonderful and extensive collection of instruments you have. Very nice! And they also look particularly well cared for. Very nice. Thank you for this wonderful lecture on improvisation. It was a great pleasure to listen to. Hartelijk dank daarvoor, mijnheer de Vries. 🎼

The lecture was very interesting. You are, in addition to being a master of music, a very friendly person. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.

Thank you, thank you! The numbers of enthusiastic children who were driven from what should have been a pleasant experience with piano by forbidding them them the "evil crime" of "playing by ear" and making up their own tunes. They were told that (improvising) is bad because you can't make any mistakes to be corrected by reading the music and practicing!

This is golden! Thank you, Sietze!

Mr. De Vries is the best musician alive that I know of. Thanks you Sir.

Wonderful Orgel so fitting for Master Organist as Sietze de Vries.

und Bach waere mit Sicherheit begeistert gewesen. Und die Fuge: meine Güte - mit was für einer Leichtigkeit und Unangestrengtheit sie gespielt wurde. Da wird man dann schon etwas neidisch. Chapeau !!! ❤❤❤

Thank you! An outstandingly valuable video, full of ideas that just a decade or two ago would have been thought eccentric, and which now seem eminently sensible and completely practical - almost self-evidently valid. Everyone who teaches music - especially those who teach it to children - should watch this video. And what a wonderful collection of instruments!

Superb. If only composition were taught as a natural evolution of this approach.

This is a good start for the week! I did recently a video(not uploaded ) exactly trying to explain the specifics of improvisation.Because many people teach it as it were simply another type of written composition only, but it is a bit more than this…

Thank you for this inspiring video! Im an organist from Ostfriesland (as my channel clearly tells😂) and I once heard you play in Groothusen. I learned conpletly from sight reading and with your videos you really pushed my interest for improvisation! Thank you for that! Btw, is it anyway possible to play on the green monster as an extern organist? Is it even worth questioning?

Do you have plans developing improvisations in tonal styles of the XiX and XX century? Gratulations again for the flawless performance!

Yes, I do love a lot of different styles, for example: allepsalmen.nl/psalmen/20-psalm-007.html

22:06 do they allow every organist to play? They have to teach public relations here in Austria pls

of course!

Bijzonder knap

First

Sietze improviseert op exact hetzelfde niveau als bach componeert. Dit zegt iets over bach.Zijn kunstje is na te doen. Zeer overtuigend zoals hier met Sietze. bach is een zwaar overschat componist.
