Grammy Award al miglior album vocale solista classico

Il Grammy Award al miglior album vocale solista classico (Grammy Award for Best Classical Solo Vocal Album) è una delle categorie dei Grammy Award previste per la musica classica. Il premio è stato assegnato la prima volta durante la prima edizione della cerimonia nel 1959.

Prima del 2015, era assegnato come Grammy Award alla miglior interpretazione vocale classica o Grammy Award alla miglior interpretazione vocale classica solista.

Storia del premio

Al premio è stato cambiato diverse volte il nome:

• 1959-1960: Best Classical Performance - Vocal Soloist (with or without orchestra)
• 1961: Best Classical Performance - Vocal Soloist
• 1962-1964: Best Vocal Soloist Performance (with or without orchestra)
• 1965: Best Vocal Soloist Performance (with or without orchestra)
• 1966: Best Classical Vocal Soloist Performance
• 1967: Best Classical Vocal Soloist Performance (with or without orchestra)
• 1968: Best Classical Vocal Soloist Performance
• 1969: Best Vocal Soloist Performance
• 1970: Best Vocal Soloist Performance, Classical
• 1971-1990: Best Classical Vocal Soloist Performance
• 1991: Best Classical Vocal Performance
• 1992: Best Classical Vocal Soloist
• 1993-2011: Best Classical Vocal Performance
• 2012-2014: Best Classical Vocal Solo
• 2015- ad oggi: Best Classical Solo Vocal Album

Fino al 2015 compreso, il Grammy è stato assegnato a uno o più solisti vocali. Non erano ammessi al premio musicisti accompagnatori, orchestre e/o direttori.

Dal 2015 il premio è assegnato solo agli album; negli anni precedenti anche i singoli brani erano idonei per il premio.

Dal 2016 sono stati inclusi anche gli "artistai collaborativi" (come accompagnatori solisti, direttori d'orchestra o gruppi da camera). L'accompagnamento di grandi orchestre o di più strumentisti, tuttavia, rimane inammissibile. Anche il produttore (i) e l'ingegnere (i) di oltre il 50% del tempo di riproduzione della registrazione ricevono un premio.
