Notes
Yes! Another much-requested soundtrack finally gets a much deserved CD reissue!
For the very first time on CD, this Piero Piccioni's complete soundtrack in mono and in full stereo from the episodes "La Strega Bruciata Viva" ("The Witch Scorched Alive") by Luchino Visconti and "Una Sera Come Le Altre" ("A Night Like Any Other") by Vittorio De Sica that were part of the 1967 anthology movie "Le Streghe" (AKA The Witches and Les Sorci¨¨res) produced by Dino de Laurentiis.

This CD (with a total duration close to 63 minutes) focuses only on the music of Piero Piccioni for this film. The tapes have been kept in the private archives of Maestro Piccioni and they have been given the light of day with the big help of Jason Piccioni, the son of the composer.

Two 1? reel tapes, one in stereo and one in mono, which have been preserved until today in very good condition have really given DigitMovies the chance to realise this - until today, impossible - CD reissue dream.

For "The Witch Scorched Alive" Piero Piccioni has written a refined dance floor theme, a shake for piano, organ, drums, guitars and brass, which we might call "The witches shake", reprised with different instrumentations (Tr.1,Tr.3,Tr.5,Tr.Tr.9, Tr.11, Tr.13, Tr.16), and which is the background dance of Gloria in the hotel lounge room, admired by her envious friends who surround her. This dance floor music (much searched and loved by Film Music fans around the world) is alternated with a romantic, rarefied and haunting love theme that, without doubt, is one of the most beautiful love themes of the whole career of Piero Piccioni: a jazzy, slow, suspended, almost sacred theme for harp, vibraphone, guitar, celesta, flute and bass (Tr.4, Tr.6, Tr.8, Tr.10, Tr.12, Tr.14, Tr.15). As bonus tracks at the end of this CD there's included, for historical and artistic purposes, the very rare mono version of the shake theme as featured in the opening titles (tr.31) - with some sound effect found in the mono master tape of the final film music/effects mix (sadly a mix without effects did not survive at all) - and a long stereo suite (tr.32) re-recorded by Piccioni which is based on the shake theme and variations of the magical love theme.

For the Vittorio De Sica episode starring Silvana Mangano and Clint Eastwood Piccioni has written a very romantic waltz-like love theme in Tr.17,Tr.19,Tr.24,Tr.30 alternated with burlesque American-flavoured marches (Tr.21,Tr.23,Tr.25,Tr.26,Tr.29). Also dance floor music of those days is featured like "Cha-cha beat" - both in the short original single version (Tr.18) and in the long take (Tr.28) - and lovely shake music with female choir (Tr.20).

This CD also contain source music tracks like lounge music for piano solo (Tr.2), a piano solo reprise (Tr.7) of the famous Italian hit "Il mondo" by Jimmy Fontana and Gianni Meccia, "Chariot", a big hit of Petula Clark (written by Frank Pourcel and Paul Mauriat) aka "I Will Follow Him" in the stereo mix version with choir and orchestra (Tr.22) and its instrumental version in mono (Tr.27), both of which arranged by Piccioni himself. The score is brilliantly conducted by Bruno Nicolai and Piero Piccioni himself. Please note also that in this soundtrack and almost in all his soundtracks, Piccioni performs solo piano and organ. An Italian Silver Age soundtrack that fully deserves to be rescued and preserved.
