Here are some nice shots of the Trinité with their long term organist (60 years!) Olivier Messiaen playing the impressive instrument: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SY7g0ULVl2I

The video is ripped from a DVD containing these organ improvisations and "Quatuor pour la Fin du Temps".

My CD was recorded in 2000 and 2001 (P) on Erato Disques.

so that's the second integral recording, "historically informed" because she would try and use organs her brother played.

Thanks for the identification.  At this point, I have no way to compare three versions (apparently the first one is uploaded on YouTube, though), but at least my CDs seems to be interesting to listen to.

I am really very impressed by #276. What an instrument!

All these symbols, the sun, the moon, the stars and the regional emblems add to the mystery.

Yeah, and Grenzing's signature big enough to be read from the nave. Never seen that before.

In case it has interest - music: Old Swedish Organs 

The booklet contains older photos and specifications of the organs being played.
