Beautiful photos! I'd love to see a concert hall designed to look like something from this gallery.

A little game for all of you: On Firefox or Chrome, go to Developer Tools (F12) > Console and execute: document.querySelectorAll('p').forEach(e => e.style.opacity = 0) Now without the text visible anymore, try and guess which musical instrument each picture represents. Then reload the page, enjoy the article, and check how many you got right. What's your score out of 8? I scored 5.

No need to reload, you can hover over the image and read its filename to see the answers right after you guessed.

I thought dpreview closed down. Happy to see it didn't. Who saved them?

The violins looks like the lower deck of a galleon. cf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Victory#/media/File:Victor...

It's cool to see how much the older double bass and violin have been repaired. Those square/flat pyramid pieces of wood are cleats, which were added by a luthier to repair and secure cracks.

When I look at the inside of an instrument I can 'hear'the music playing.
