# Diapason d'Or

Il Diapason d'Or costituisce un riconoscimento per eccezionali registrazioni di musica classica data dai critici della rivista Diapason in Francia, a grandi linee equivalente a "Editor's Choice", "Disc of the Month" nella rivista inglese Gramophone.
Il Diapason d'Or de l'Année è un premio più prestigioso, deciso da una giuria composta da critici di Diapason e delle emittenti di France Musique, ed è paragonabile al Gramophone Award del Regno Unito, associato con la rivista Gramophone.
