    A bit of whimsical fun: the Scherzo from Widor’s 8th organ symphony, played on Widor’s Cavaille-Coll organ at St. Sulpice de Paris by Yves Castagnet (organist of Notre Dame)… I love the creepy crawly upward half step modulations about half way through this piece: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahYBWM6xe1U

      Church/Pipe organs in large resonant cavities such as stone churches always so damned difficult to make a proper recordings of. Spatial information is all over the place. Real 5:1 or 7:1 recordings might do it, i dunno, newer heard one.
