DANIEL, it is so good to read your affirmation about Gert van Hoef's hands and feet. I feel the same way. It is revealed every time I hear one of his KZread videos or CDs. At 71 myself, I don't know how much longer GOD will permit me to view the relatively few young and upcoming organist-composer-arrangers, but it is a joyful thing to know that despite the worldwide decline in such musicians in churches, at least, the art of Organs and Organplaying lives on and is, I believe, increasing. As I'm writing, Gert is playing in the background his delightful, nearly Orchestral rendition of songs from SOUND OF MUSIC. One of my last wishes is to get to meet Gert and Marjolein in person and to hear and see them make music in concert.

Oh! Right, it's a god again. I'm going for pan. Poor Gert, just an empty vessel into which the almighty pan secreted his goodness.

Amen! It’s great to see the great music being played and kept alive by an incredibly talented young man

My granddaughter and I attended the concert on 10th August and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. I look forward to seeing Gert and Marjolein at the Victoria Hall again in 2021.

Thanks Gert and Marjolein, lovely informal, behind-the-scenes video where we get to see you as people and not just as performers. Once again it looks like your father is the cameraman. Good luck on Saturday, I'm sure it will be a ball!

I attended the concert yesterday. What a wonderful experience. The programme was excellent. You said in your speech that you love this organ. I think the organ loves you at the keyboard. It sings when you play. I am so glad you are coming back in 2021. It is such a long time to wait though. Thank you to all concerned for such a memorable visit to Hanley.

Me too. I came by car from Northern Ireland and combined it with a visit to friends in Wales. It was a lovely concert. I decided to complece my Gert CD collection.

Wonderfully played Gert and Marjolein, lovely performance and travel!

That was fun! And yes! That organ is an absolute beauty! Amazing sound, that was so cool!

Excellent. I enjoy seeing you live as well as perform your magic on the Organ.

Very nice place. And you are amazing !

What an awesome couple! Good Luck (Veel Succes) Gert and Marjolein as you travel for your concert in England. May God Bless you both as well as those hands and feet. :) I wish I could be there to hear you. Some day I hope. Thank you for sharing the video with us so we all can travel along. Play your heart out!!!!! and create magic on that organ, as I know you will. Much love and hugs to both of you. Godspeed!!!!!

What a lovely reminder I wish I could get across from the other side of the world.

unbelievable harmonies, the crowd could be forgiven if they were a few cents off, just amazing beauty!

As the notification for this video arrived I was packing my suitcase for my trip from Northern Ireland to the concert Saturday.

Ich find es Toll, dass Du Deine liebe Frau teilhaben läßt an Deinem Erfolg und wünsch Euch und dem Nachwuchs alles erdenklich Gute und weiterhin Gesundheit und Liebe zueinander das ist so von Gottgewollt. Ich bin begeisterter Zuhörer Eurer Musik . Liebe Grüße aus Cloppenburg.

Really looking forward to the concert on Saturday!

Can't wait to hear another magnificent concert coming from Victoria Hall. Your artwork and technique are truly amazing as you make it seem so easy. Thank you for sharing what you do!

So nice to see you both traveling to England! Good luck with the concert! I wish you good experiences these days.

I look forward to another concert from Victoria Hall. Great choice for the sound track "The Sound of Music" on organ fits well. : ) John W.

Gert, Thanks for sharing a bit of your trip with your wife and videographer to play another concert on the Conacher/Willis Organ in Victoria Hall at Hanely, Stoke-on-Trent, England. It was fun to watch with the Sound of Music playing behind the action. Especially appreciated is that you share your musical life with us as we travel in our respective lanes on this life journey.

I‘m a new fan from Austria Vienna. You both Are amazing !

Какая вы прекрасная пара! Удачи и счастья! How pleasant, beautiful and charismatic you are both! Happiness to your family!

Extraordinário esse organista, nota máxima para ele e sua competentíssima esposa.

Fantastic

Very very beautiful I am a fan from Ireland since seeing your video "Jesus blibtet meine feude" improvisation by Bach about six months ago

Eagerly waiting for the full video of your performance at Victoria Hall.

Can't wait to watch the recording of your third concert at Victoria Hall!

I love listening to Gert playing the organ. Real full quality playing with lots of 16, 32 and maybe 64 foot stops being used. I also love listening to the young German organist Paul Fey, also brilliant organist -and also love listening to a slightly different type of organ, the cinema/theatre organ and one organist in particular, recordings from the 1930's up to the 1970's of Reginald Dixon on the Blackpool Tower Wurlitzer pipe organ.

toda a vida ouvi dizer...que atras de um grande homem esta sempre uma grande mulher....um grande organista so possivel também a grande competencia e ajuda da sua esposa! Parabéns pelo facto aos dois!!!

Very nice video 😂 I had to smile very often. And the music fit and was very amusing. And then there is the anthem with very beautiful harmonies. Grand! 😌 😍

Thank you very much! Please more videos like this))

Very interesting and unique travel video. Not only do I LOVE organ music but airports as well, even though I don't get to fly anywhere near as often as you do. I agree with one of the other comments the choice of excerpts from The Sound Of Music was very good.

A moment of sanity and beauty in 2019, just before the world went mad.

Thanks for this music.... Bravo !!!

Complimenten aan Geurt van Hoef, de vader van Gert, voor het maken deze en alle andere video's van Gert.

See you Saturday. Can't wait. Have a good trip.

Amazingly Beautiful Couple, have a Great Time. RB

Wunderbar!

Really looking foreward to this on Saturday

You guys are like the cutest couple ever :) and of course the best organ music and videos.

prachtige opening,veel plezier gewenst in Engeland

The organist at the forefront of this planet, thank you! De organist in de voorhoede van deze planeet, bedankt! Mooie samenwerking met een belangrijke assistent. De assistent speelt voor Gert een even belangrijke rol als het orgel zelf. Dank je wel! Tämän planeetan eturivin urkuri, kiitos!

What a delightful video to watch, absolutely wonderful Looking forward to seeing the concert hopefully? Jezza

Love these "behind the scenes" videos!

What a beautiful organ !

Very nice your vid....I enjoy so much it........embraces from Santiago de Chile

Excellent presentation!

Marjolein and Gert, welcome to France, we are waiting you !

I loved this video, like a journeyman (old English term from 'homme de journee), a skilled crafstman travelling with his skills, but with independently recognised skills that meant they could work anywhere (from Hanseatic/Medieval times). Great footage, loved the flotilla of ships across the channel at 1:49, perhaps Rotterdam to London or Newhaven? For good or bad, doet je beseffen in wat voor een kleine wereld we leven, vooral tussen Nederland en het Verenigd Koninkrijk, die de meest vergelijkbare talen delen! (You can almost say this last sentence in Dutch and understand what it means in English!). And at 2:56 you can bet Gert and his wife were conversing in excellent English - the Dutch have extraordinary English skills, like the Scandinavians.

Muchas gracias por el concierto y hos deseo un buen biaje saludos desde Catalunya

Omg!!!! My home city of Stoke-On-Trent. Been in Victoria Hall Hanley many a time. Hope you enjoyed and will return.

super !!! j'aime beaucoup , longue vie pour vous deux

Fans from México

Beautiful couple. God Bless them.

Sounds Wonderful!

That’s ONE BEAUTIFUL COUPLE!

Wonderful!

Wow! You and Marjolein have such a unique way of announcing important events in your life. That travel video was charming. Welcome back to England. Looking forward with great anticipation to the concert on Saturday. May I say how well and how you happy you both look. Parenthood obviously suits you both. Best wishes for the performance.

Gert, you're the best!

I played it about 5 times for SOM traveling segment. I cranked it too. Can't speak for the neighbors, but I love it

Sempre bravissimo e complimenti alla moglie

I live in Stoke on Trent and I didn't know this concert was happening, or I would have been there for certain - you are a wonderful musician and that organ deserves to be played by someone so talented.

As this is the month of my 90 birthday, from my little corner in Dorset, thank you Gert for giving mij friends in the Victoria Hall the privilege to listen to you, and could you play "het Wilhelmus" for us next time when you come?

When you coming to London, Gert? St Paul´s Cathedral probably the best place. I´,m a new fan, since yesterday, and a rockin´ Motorhead nut. You´re real loud like them - you thumping away at ´Bomber´- yeah!

Very,Very beautiful

the tears flow!

Aujourd'hui, je vois qui l'inspire, c'est merveilleux.

Looking forward to Saturday. Not so much the 300 mile round trip, but worth every mile.

Anthony, how was the concert or should I say, "how incredible is Gert?" Marjolein? Have a safe trip back home

This is so weird! I live in the Bay Area (20 miles east of San Francisco) and it’s 11:30 a.m. August 9, 2019 and you guys are already a day ahead but also a day older! Greetings from the US!

Wauw dit is mooi!

good luck !!!

Hanley this week -where next ? Talent like this needs an international stage. There are so many brilliant organs in the UK and audiences waiting to see and hear Gert - come on impresarios !!

Bravo! Please come and play for us again soon!

Bravo!

Not to far from where I live. I will try and get there on Saturday.

Vrolijk en mooi!!

I love what you did with the Sound of Music. Could you do the wedding sequence?

At least you're not having to take your instrument on a plane!

England just feels a bit happier with you both here. I am so sorry I can't make it to Stoke this weekend but look forward to the video. Do you think you can fit some more visits to us over here next year. We also have a wonderful Father Willis concert organ in Reading. Just saying ;) Good luck for Saturday.

Это музыка из самого любимого фильма»Звуки музыки». Смотрела без счету раз и вот она снова звучит

Really interesting my dear friend .. ♫♫♫ many successes ... ♪♪♪♪ Have a great time ... ♫♫ really an exciting video ... ♪♪♪♪

Prachtig

Hope you got/get to meet the Scott Brothers Duo!
