Re the above post: After the family bought their home organ in 2008, Young Gert van Hoef learned to read music. Here what can result from bringing an electronic organ into a home - this is what Gert has achieved in 4 years ...2 1/2 years after the above video!

Now Gert is a church organist, and has a job demonstrating organs for a digital organ company. Several of his recent videos are on digitals. -
What is this doing here?Comment

There's been a lot of Gert on the Forum today. Not sure what I think of him, but his DVD looks interesting (the one with the super eclectic program).As of 7/16/2013, no longer active on forum.
Practice hard, practice well.Comment

Hi All
I have followed young Gert Van Hoef from his earliest videos, Starting with the Tocotta and fugue in D minor by J S and he truly is a remarkable talent...Plus he works hard!! An up and coming star in the organ world and a unique young talent!

I was just reading elsewhere on this site about the Longwood Gardens organ prize ($40,000), and the finals this weekend. Wouldn't Gert Van Hoef make a good candidate?!!!

I am 14 and play organ. The organist at my church said she was delighted to hear about the younger generation taking interest in organs.Comment

Yes indeed! We need more kids like you.
I had a call from a community college the other day. They want to have their old Rodgers analog serviced because they are starting to get requests for organ instruction once again! Talk about a hopeful sign!John

To me, people who don't play organ but do play piano are kind of lazy. Organ may be a hard instrument to play for most people, and I have not been playing it for very long, but it has never been hard for me. If you learn it, it will get easier and easierComment
