The Walt Disney Concert Hall exemplifies contemporary architecture. Frank Gehry has been praised for the unique design of architecture and one of a kind acoustics within the hall.  The exterior is made up of stainless steel curves while the interior has a hardwood-paneled main auditorium to provide state of the art acoustics.

Gehry even helped design the organ himself. He wanted something that no one had ever seen and something to match the creativeness of the building.  After many plans, a curved wooden pipe concept was chosen. It is one of the many structures that provides incredible acoustics.
