@betz554 Are you high?

Fantastic!!! Definitely Vierne Symphony No. 2. I have Aoleus recording if Mr. Roth playing it on this instrument. Available from Joe Vitacco at JAV Recordings. I loved it when he hummed along, and also when he was resetting the action at the end.

It is indeed the Vierne - I have played it myself on many occasions. Why betz554 should be so certain it was Widor is difficult to understand.

@betz554 This is most certainly Vierne Symphony 2
-
@betz554 It is not
I don't fully understand the mechanism, but Arstide Caville-Coll had an arrangement of two ventils which allowed a single pre-setting, literally of one additional registration for the entire instrument. This predated the modern combination action, and I believe that the society church (St.Sulpice) instrument was the best example. It's endearing to hear Daniel Roth humming, much in the manner of Glen Gould(??) - someone so at one with the music that he transcends the mechanics of the instrument!
