“Anne Sofie von Otter is everything you want in such a singer, with her wide-ranging, flexible voice” - Daily News (Los Angeles)
Always looking for new challenges, Anne Sofie von Otter herself conceived this album: “Sweden has a rich singing tradition. I wanted to do something for its contemporary vocal music, which is ripe for discovery.”
