The Cathedral of the Incarnation, Nashville, Tennessee, has selected Goulding & Wood Pipe Organ Builders, Indianapolis, Indiana, to build a new organ for its renovated worship space.
The resources for Opus 54, a three-manual, forty-rank instrument, housed in twin oak cases flanking the gallery stained glass window, will be spread over four divisions Great, Swell, Solo, and Pedal and include five sets of pipes retained from the 1920 Henry Pilcher’s Sons instrument.
Goulding & Wood plans to deliver the instrument in spring 2023.

The year 2020 was indeed an historic year for many reasons. As the calendar page turns to another year, it has become somewhat easier to see in retrospect that 2020 contained reasons for celebration even amidst a time of pandemic and stress. For Goulding & Wood Pipe Organ Builders of Indianapolis, 2020 marked forty years of operation and afforded a chance to look back at the arc of the company’s history. The capstone of this anniversary year was the completion of the firm’s Opus 52 organ for Saint John’s Episcopal Cathedral of Knoxville, Tennessee. This project is built on a solid legacy of organ building from the Indianapolis workshop.
