I hope Saimel or Alhambra can do something 
Me too.
Also, Kronos and Quartet continue to release Italian film music.
What about Chris's Soundtrack Corner and Octave In Lounge? Are they still producing CDs?

Thanks for this list of unreleased Piccioni!
More than half of these titles are pre-1964.
I'd love to see more albums of Piccioni music from the late-1950s and early-1960s.
I feel, though, that a large percentage of people who collect Piccioni discs are interested more in music with groove from late-'60s/early-'70s.
Piero's earlier music needs more representation and distribution, IMO.

I can at least tell you that one of the Piccioni titles in the CAM list and which is from that era is now in the works at Saimel where I will also be involved.

Good news!
I personally wish for a soundtrack from the 1961 Elio Petri-directed film L'Assassino, but any of these titles I'd be interested in.
As my leisure time permits, I'll be searching for data on each of those titles and post them here one at a time to get a feel on how other FSM members might respond to possible future albums on them.

Il segreto della Sierra Dorada (1957).
This looks like the earliest title of the unreleased Piccioni in the C.A.M. archives.
After I looked this up in IMDB, I'm intrigued by it.
It apparently is an adventure story co-produced between Brazil and Italy; the language of this film is in Portuguese.
I hope some enterprising label will issue this. A Piero Piccioni soundtrack album from a Brazilian film would be a very unique item!
Would any other FSMer be interested in Il segreto della Sierra Dorada?

Next on that list of unreleased Piccioni tapes @ Gruppo Sugar, chronologically, is Sergio Corbucci's 1959 drama I ragazzi dei Parioli.
This appears to be a routine flick about idle upperclass guys corrupting girls, pre-dating the LA DOLCE VITA milieu.
Any Piero fans interested? My guess would be this score is in Piccioni's big band jazz mode...

This is of course an interesting way to learn about the soundtrack.
Oh - yes. I'm sure we all have films on home video which serve as the only way we can hear what the music sounds like.
In my film collection, though, there aren't many which are scored by Piccioni...

Brevi amori a Palma di Majorca (1959)
La notte brava (1959)
I tartassati (1959)
and others
However, for those three I'm afraid there is very little music (or least only brief segments or quiet underscore), and what is heard is typical big band jazz. I presume the session tapes, if they exist, could be more interesting
Maybe Stefan Schlegel could comment on both or either La notte brava or Brevi amori a Palma di Majorca regarding runtime duration of the music?
Perhaps these 2 could be placed together, via Sugar, on a single CD by Beat or Digitmovies?

In those cases I only watched because of Piccioni (I don't even speak Italian!)
Around 2011, I bought the Italian DVD of IL DEMONIO just to hear Piccioni's score.
I don't speak Italian, either, but I watched it several times without subtitles.
So glad Beat issued this in 2013.

I think Stefan's list might be in the order that Piccioni recorded the music.
L'Impiegato was released early in 1960 according to IMDB, but most likely the recording sessions were done in '59.
As L'Impiegato is categorized as a comedy, this would (on the surface) not be something I'd be interested in much...

I recall "wayoutwest" posting about how much he'd like a soundtrack for I dolci inganni (1960), but he hasn't been logging into FSM for months.
Hope he sees this list of unreleased tapes held by Sugar.
I remember the Piccioni music during the opening scenes of Sweet Deceptions as Catherine Spaak tosses & turns in her bed...

Le svedesi was released in Italy in December of 1960.
However, IMDB doesn't even categorize this movie ... is it comedy, drama or what?
Anybody know?

Lots of untapped Piccioni tapes from 1961!
This might be the banner year for unreleased Piero which is known to exist.
L'assassino (Elio Petri crime thriller), released March of 1961
Il mondo di notte (documentary), opened in April '61 in West Germany
La viaccia (Bolognini drama, which uses Debussy's saxophone rhapsody), premiered @ the May '61 Cannes
Mani in alto (adventure, aka "Destination Fury"), first shown July '61
Il mondo di notte 2 - the documentary which followed-up the first one - premiered next year in 1962 in U.S.A. (!)
[I, for one, would like ALL of the above to get issued onto albums! Daniela Durazzini & Claudio Fuiano please work on these. ]

Listed as a comedy, Il giorno più corto (1963) is likely a spoof of The Longest Day (1962) which was a high-profile war movie at the time.
Are there any FSMers/Piccioni fans who would want this on disc?
Having neither seen it nor heard it, I'm still nevertheless inclined to pass on it since it's a comedy.

LO STRANIERO is no longer in stock @ SAE.
Does anybody know if this Verita Note CD has been sold out or do copies remain for sale with other vendors?
