Sogno was released internationally on April 6, 1999.

The album was released in Spanish under the name Sueño (English: Dream).[4]

Accolades

In 1999, Bocelli was nominated for Best New Artist at the Grammys, which marked the first time a classical artist had been nominated in the category in 38 years.

His duet with Celine Dion, The Prayer, originally appeared, as a solo version (for Celine Dion) in the 1998 animated film Quest for Camelot, and won the Golden Globe for Best Original Song as well as being nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song.

Commercial performance

Sogno entered the upper reaches of the pop album charts around the world, giving birth to the phenomenon of "Bocellimania".[6]
