    Young Organists



    Stumbled on this organist while surfing through YouTube:

    He has quite a few videos posted on his channel.

    If it's not baroque, don't fix it.

    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.

    It's good to see young organists keeping up the tradition. Too bad we couldn't see more.

    Wow! The Dutch Cameron Carpenter! (Without the sequins.) Nice to know that there are rising stars in other places.

    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).
