Voices and songs of gargano's country - italy. Voice of michele ciccone. Powerful voice with the 'castagnole' (it. Nàcchere or castagnette = castanets) and harmonic. He was born in mattinata in the 1922. When was young he played the 'serenate' (lovely songs typically played in the south italy, under the balcony of the sweetheart) to the girls of the country accompanied from some musicians. Recorded the 11 march 1997 thanks to angelo pantaleo's mobile recording studio.
Sound walk in pinerolo (mar. 11, 2017), italy. From inside the train station, through a park and a pedestrian street to the market square. Recorded with olympus ls-10.
The sound of margorabbia torrent (ferrera di varese, northern italy) quietly flowing. Distant birds, no clipping or saturated sounds. Perfect for quiet/relaxing nature backgrounds. Recorded with zoom h1n.

Recoding from my sony camcorder while holidaying in italy. The 7am and 7pm bells from the campanile (bell tower) in the medieval hilltop village of sorana, tuscany. Note at beginning the muffled sound of bells from nearby village and the odd ever present birds. I left these sounds in as they give a sense of place to the bells.
Fermona waterfall in ferrera di varese (northern italy) recorded from the small pond downstream. Quite saturated but not distorted or clipping. Perfect for energetic nature backgrounds. Recorded with zoom h1n.
