It's a bit much to say this is a "really bad instrument" simply because this registration--and maybe the tonal scheme of the organ--isn't ideal for this piece.
Would love to hear the piece breathe and phrase, with some give and take to tempo and rhythm. It is rather metronomic, particularly the Litanie.
I'm sorry, but this performance sounds academic and lifeless, though of course there's accuracy in the playing. The instrument isn't well-suited to the piece either. Please check out the composer's performance at St. Sulpice on Youtube to see what is possible.
This organ has a distinct lack of 8ft principals and strings, which is really unhelpful for any repertoire.

Really bad instrument (sorry) not suited to music being played either.

This piece is so awesome! We're getting the rest of the new pipes this week! Hope all is well.
