Very interesting. When my church's Klais instrument was installed in 2006 and 2010, there were 2 people documenting the construction process. No videos, but a big number of stills -- I took 700 in 2006 and 475 in 2010 (2nd phase -- Antiphonal Organ and a few additions to the Main Organ). It was a labor of love.

Small pipe organ! The video just showed guys unloading wrapping blankets from a truck.

There are at least 4 videos covering various parts of the installation.

Oh, I just clicked on the one linked rather than going directly to YT.

It's interesting to compare the organ as installed with the original drawings shown, which had no en chamade trumpets and also the facade pipes didn't look like filter tip cigarettes. (Not a fan of that look at all.)

I look forward to some videos of it being played.
