This is a Cavaille-Coll? Really?

OMG! I can't believe to these minor details allover this song....I have never seen such a thing...But he could have done better when he came down to lower keyboard....

I also much appreciated the smooth and expert pedal work and noticed the seamless heel-toe substitutions. Inspirational.
