This is a song from the 24th Molisan Dialect Song Festival (August 11-13, 2013), performed by a band from Mirabello Sannitico called Quelli delle Serenate. Mirabello Sannitico is located to the west of Cercemaggiore. The song is called "Serenate a Lucije (La zite!)." The lyrics are in the video description:

This is a song from the Molisean comune (municipality) of Colle d'Anchise, courtesy of Molise Web TV. Colle d'Anchise is located to the west of Mirabello Sannitico and Guardiaregia. I'm guessing this song is a folk song or something in the local Molisean variety, but I can't make out a word of what's being sung because it's noisy enough to prevent me from doing that. :P So here it is:

From mn. 1:34, Youssou N'Dour, after French, is singing in another language that I don't recognise (maybe Wolof? :hmm: )

This is a song from Sant'Elena Sannita, a comune in the Province of Isernia but bordering the Province of Campobasso and to the west of Colle d'Anchise in Campobasso. It's sung by someone named Mario Muliere who is from Sant'Elena Sannita but apparently now lives in Rome, and it's an ode to his region. This is another case where I think the song is in Molisan, but I can't make out very many of the words and am not absolutely sure, so I'm posting it here just in case it doesn't qualify as a song in a minority language:

Frosolone is another comune just to the west of Sant'Elena Sannita well-known for manufacturing blades and is of course also part of the Province of Isernia (Isernia is in western Molise; Campobasso is the only other province in Molise). This is a clip from Frosolone, apparently of a popular song there filmed on August 1, 2016. Once again, as with my last post in this thread, I'm posting this here because I'm not sure whether it's in Molisan or just Standard Italian, although my guess is again leaning towards Molisan:

Macchiagodena is located just south of Frosolone, also in the Province of Isernia. This is a folk song, courtesy of Molise Web TV, by a group from Macchiagodena performing in Sepino, which is actually to the east in the Province of Campobasso. (So the song that I posted that was actually performed in Macchiagodena was by a group from the Province of Campobasso, and this one that's from Macchiagodena was filmed in the Province of Campobasso :P):

Castelpetroso is located in the Province of Isernia as well, located directly to the west of Macchiagodena but is not adjacent to it (Santa Maria del Molise is located in between them; Carpinone is adjacent to all three of these places). This is a clip of two songs being performed in Castelpetroso:

Abruzzo is the region to the north of Molise. Alfedena is a comune in the Province of L'Aquila, which is just to the north of the Province of Isernia in Molise, and if my understanding is correct, the local language variety spoken in Alfedena (as in at least some other parts of L'Aquila) is Molisan. This is a clip from Alfedena; as usual, I'm not sure whether it's in the local variety or just in Standard Italian or something:

Carovilli is a village and comune located close to the middle of the Province of Isernia in Molise. This is a song from Carovilli that sounds to me like it's probably in Molisan (I hear a lot of schwas :P) with a lot of pictures that are presumably from Carovilli as well:

Miranda is a comune located just to the south of Carovilli. This is a song from Miranda played by a folk band on the evening of August 14, 2012. The tune reminds me somehow of a baila from Sri Lanka in Sri Lankan Portuguese Creole called "Sri Lanka Terra." :hmm: I wonder whether this is a more common tune than I realized:

Campochiaro is located in the Province of Campobasso, immediately to the south of Colle d'Anchise, just east of San Polo Matese, and just west of Guardiaregia. This is a video from Campochiaro from 2012, courtesy of Molise Web TV, with a very short song at the very beginning from 0:16 to about 0:44 and some lines from an outdoor play(?) being sung from 4:12 to 5:12. I think the songs are all in Molisan, though of course, the report in the middle and after all the songs are not (they're in Standard Italian, albeit IINM with a noticeable Molisan accent):
