Amazing instrument, never heard of this piece before though. I think I prefer more traditional pieces. (Bach , Vidor etc) .

Don't get me wrong, I love the art of improvisation. Especially from people like Olivier Latry, Daniel Roth, etc. But I don't really understand or enjoy this type of improvisation, there is no essence of any type of form or musicality. He just got the organ to literally almost lose air 4:19
