Jahrespreis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik (Annual Award of the German Record Critics)

The annual committee of the PdSK (Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik) decides on the ten Annual Awards, recognizing the best productions of the past year. The committee consists of a rotating cast of ten jurors from various expert juries. Each juror of the PdSK can nominate productions for the Annual Awards. Annual awards are awarded to the winners as part of public concerts or literary readings (in the field of spoken word). From 2014 onward, the Long Lists of Annual Awards can be found on the same page as each year’s award winners.
