Sogno barocco - A baroque dream - is the third recording of Swedish mezzo-soprano Anne Sofie von Otter on Na+¯ve.  Dedicated to the first baroque Italian opera, with its long recitativos and its powerful arias, this recording gathers together hits of baroque music such as Monteverdi "Si dolce +ª 'l tormento" and "pur ti miro" and discoveries such as Rossi's Lamento of the Queen of Sweden.  Anne Sofie von Otter sings with acclaimed soprano Sandrine Piau on three of the included pieces.  The Ensemble Cappella Mediterranea and Leonardo Garcia Alarcon are rising stars of the baroque world and provide an excellent accompaniment to the nuanced performance of von Otter.
