Jean Guillou - Joue Jean Guillou (1997)
Avant garde organ works performed by the composer with help from soprano Kioko Okada. Classical Music On The Web says:
Guillou is at an opposite pole to his internationally more famous contemporary, the contemplative Messiaen, who celebrated his devout religious belief in everything he composed in music which is often passive and never goal oriented. Guillou offers instead dramatic gestures and fantastical poetic images, inventing the dramatic organ, divorced from all its associations as a religious instrument. He is an organ polymath, writer, teacher and organ desgner credited with imposing a new individuality upon the organ of the twentieth century.
Not for the faint of heart but definitely well worth hearing.

Nothing I haven't heard before, but it makes me nostalgic for the before times (pre-2016).
