Using my MIDI controller to control Kontakt, I have some actual sound
samples of a real celesta. (Although it actually sounds not bad on
harpsichord too...)

Having said that, I have a recording on DVD of the Dance of the Sugar
Plum Fairy played on the organ at Liverpool Cathedral. It has an almost
bell-like quality, which sounds really nice...
Check this out:

(Not quite as good, but still a lot of fun.)

That's some pretty insane footwork. And check out those runs of the
scale where he changes hands half way though... I'll never be this good,
sadly.

I'm sure he at least wouldn't mind 4'33" ;-)
Along these lines I was very surprised to find that a professor who was
sitting in on a computer science seminar with me was actually a pupil of
Xenakis. He had some amusing stories to tell about how Xenakis once
cleared out an entire concert hall save for three of his students
(including the professor) in the front row.
I was also lucky enough to hear a good reproduction of La Légende d'Eer
in an actual concert a couple of years ago. My girlfriend who I'd
dragged to the event was somewhat less enthusiastic.
