The current status of phonon‐dispersion studies at high pressure using very high energy resolution inelastic X‐ray scattering is discussed. A brief description of the instrumental apparatus is given, together with an illustration of the high‐pressure facilities available at the IXS beamlines ID16 and ID28 of the ESRF. Some selected examples of recent studies on crystalline and liquid samples in a diamond anvil cell are then presented.
