The Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Soloist Performance (without orchestra) has been awarded since 1959. From 1967 to 1971 and in 1987 the award was combined with the award for Best Instrumental Soloist(s) Performance (with orchestra) and awarded as the Grammy Award for Best Classical Performance - Instrumental Soloist or Soloists (with or without orchestra).
