best recordings of 2001?


I usually buy 90% of my CD's/LP's at this time of year.
I'm looking for recommendations for music mainly jazz and
classical chamber music from this august readership. Ofcourse sonics are paramount.
What are your favorite discs of this past year(or two)?

Happy holidays to all and thanks to Audiogon for my favorite
audio site.

A release that I am particularly fond of is "Inner Voyage" by Gonzalo Rubalcaba. It is Afro-Cuban style Jazz from a 38 year old Cuban who has only recently been able to travel freely in the US.

You might catch a download to see if his style fits your taste. He is a strange combination of Dave Brubeck, Keith Jarrett and Bill Evans. If you enjoy piano jazz, give him a listen. This particular recording is on Blue Note, a label long known for Jazz.
