From the Naples Academy of Music comes this collection of Italian folksongs. There are some great sounds on here. Every track worth 1 star.

*1. Fun, happy, strings/percussion.
*2. Funiculi funicula w/a nice counterpoint of strings.
3. Slow, quiet, gentle, and pretty. Very old-fashioned.
*4. Fem. vox, sweet strings, a romantic, nostalgic sound.
*5. Fast w/a bouncy energy.
6. O sole mio, like a movie soundtrack. Slow, lush.
7. Tarentella w/a carnival-like feeling..
8. A romantic serenade.
9. A familiar tarentella w/a bright sound..
10. Slow w/vox/flute/strings and a rich arrangement.
11. Slow w/nice string harmonies & a quiet feeling.
*12. Big, bouncy w/percussive touches.
13. Sweet, mid-tempo melody.
14. Drums, strings, a fast, busy folkdance.
