  • One of the largest organs of the Noack company was built in 1994 for the Church of the Incarnation in Dallas. The organ has 61 stops on four manuals and pedal. During the construction, pipework was taken from the previous organ of the church, built by Aeolian-Skinner in 1960 (opus 1370). The organ case is designed in a late nineteenth century style.
  • In 1998 the organ was expanded with a Festival Trumpet, placed on the gallery at the rear of the church, which can be played from the solo keyboard. In 2007 the pedal was expanded with a Trombone 32', an extension of the existing Trombone 16'.
  • The organ was renovated in 2014-2015 by the company Noack. A number of stops have been re-voiced and some have been replaced.
