Juno Award for Classical Album of the Year – Solo or Chamber Ensemble

The Juno Award for Classical Album of the Year has been awarded since 1985, as recognition each year for the best classical music album in Canada.^[1] It was a split from the prior category for Juno Award for Classical Album of the Year, alongside a separate new category for Classical Album of the Year – Large Ensemble or Soloist with Large Ensemble Accompaniment.

As of the Juno Awards of 2022 the award is no longer presented, and instead two separate awards are presented for Classical Album of the Year - Solo and Classical Album of the Year - Small Ensemble.
