Amazon.com essential recording Andrea Bocelli's Sogno ("Dream") is a pop album of entirely original compositions that evoke traditional and modern influences. Bocelli himself describes the CD as secular Italian traditional melodic music with a contemporary twist. The album's 14 tracks include "The Prayer," a Bocelli and Celine Dion duet produced by David Foster; "Come un Fiume Tu," an intriguing collaboration with soundtrack maestro Ennio Morricone; "O Mare e Tu," a duet with Dulce Pontes; and "Sogno" (the first single excerpted from the album), a light-as-a-feather, emotional composition sung by Bocelli with his typical vocal emphasis, which has made him famous around the world since the release of his self-titled debut. --Ernesto De Pascale

A Reach Into the Soul March 29, 2000 153 out of 156 found this review helpful
I first heard Andrea Bocelli in a restaurant singing Time to Say Goodbye with Sarah Brightman. I wondered why I was so haunted by that song. I then bought Celine Dion's Christmas CD and literally lost my breath when I heard his duet with her. I immediately went out to get SOGNO (these 2 CD's are the first I have bought for myself in years). Listening to SOGNO, I knew I had lost my musical soul to the rich vibrancy of his voice and the way his songs could wring every bit of emotion I had from me. There is almost an ethereal quality to his voice that magnificently reveals itself in Sogno and Immenso and Canto de la Terra is incredible. I have a 17-year old son who plays Bocelli's SOGNO CD full blast in his open Jeep Wrangler and a 7-year son who listens to Bocelli and wishes some day he could sing as beautifully. As for Mother, the three men in her life gifted her with 2 new Bocelli CD's for Valentine's Day. Close your eyes. Sit back. Allow the magic of SOGNO and Andrea Bocelli to enchant and flow through you.
Sogno- Do more than just dream about it July 29, 2000 41 out of 41 found this review helpful
Bocelli fans who have had the delight of listening to his CD, "Aria", have experienced Bocelli's powerful voice in full operatic style. While he continues his goose-bump inspiring singing in his CD "Sogno" with his songs "Un Canto" and "Come Un Fiume Tu", Sogno really delivers much more. A veritable musical potpourri, Sogno contains a mixture of styles... ranging from a middle-eastern sound with his duet with Dulce Pontes in "'O Mare E Tu" to the popsy "Nel Cuore Lei" with Eros Ramazzoti (in both cases, you can be certain that Bocelli is the better half!). Even with the beautiful voice of Celine Dion complementing his in "The Prayer", I couldn't help but have a little dream of Bocelli singing a solo version. Alas, I found myself despairing, as the color of Bocelli's textured voice in "Tremo E T'amo". The background music in the CD was creative... perhaps a little too much? Sounds of a cafe bustle in the background of "I Love Rossini" and can be somewhat endearing once the distraction from the music dissipates. And the water running in "Come Un Fiume Tu" made me want to check my faucets. There is a choral accompaniment in a few numbers including "Canto Della Terra", although the song would have done well without it. His voice, I believe, also merits more than the slight dose of keyboard accompaniment provided in a couple songs. Perhaps it is just too easy to be spoiled by a beautiful voice like Bocelli's. He is truly at his best in "Canto Della Terra", "Sogno" and "Come Un Fiume Tu"; he communicates the words & music with great passion and tenderness, trancending any language barriers. The tune in "Mai Piu' Cosi' Lontano'" is incredibly contagious (it may have something to do with the fact that it shares its background melody with "A Mio Padre", a moving voiced message to Bocelli's father). Sad and sweet, tender and powerful, serious and playful, Sogno is a diverse dreamscape, one that I would do more than, well, dream about (i.e. buy the CD)!
Songo Satisfies June 27, 2000 34 out of 36 found this review helpful
No, this is not traditional Opera. But, Andrea Bocelli let's us "dream" and close our eyes in sheer wonderment. Light some candles...perhaps sip some wine....lean back and exquisitly unwind.When my two teenage sons noticed a recent olive oil commercial, it was the music, not the food, that widened their eyes....now THAT is saying something! Bravo Senor Bocelli~ if you think my comments are interesting, please click the "yes"--thanks--CDS
A Non-Opera Lover's Perspective November 26, 1999 21 out of 22 found this review helpful
Just once in awhile does music this beautiful make itself known to those of us that are not enthusiastic followers of opera. Listening to "Canto Della Terra" takes my breath away. Bocelli's presentation of this beautiful melody can't help but bring tears to any music lover's eyes. Bravo! This is some of the finest music ever produced, whether true opera critics like it or not.

About once a year I find a CD that is worth 10 times what I paid for it; Sogno is that CD for '99. I saw him do "The Prayer" with Celine on TV and needed more so I purchased the CD and found Mr. Bocelli. If "Canto Della Terra" and "Sogno" don't make chills go up and down your spine...well, you should be reading reviews elsewhere. Simply put, Mr. Bocelli takes me with him when he soars!
