Napoli secondo estratto is a studio album by Italian singer Mina, released on 14 November 2003 by PDU and distributed by Sony.
The album is a direct continuation of the 1996 album Napoli, which is also filled with covers of Neapolitan songs. This time the singer interprets the Neapolitan classics through mainly orchestral arrangements, giving the impression that the listener is in the theater hall.
The album design, as always, was done by Mauro Baletti, the singer lost the album cover to three real Neapolitans, Totò, Tina Pica and Titina De Filippo, they are sitting on the balcony of the opera house waiting for the performance, and Mina herself can only be found in the booklet, she looks out from behind the scenes.
Paola Maraone from Rockol stated that Mina "remains the only non-Neapolitan singer who can play Parthenopean classics without looking ridiculous" and noted her "soulful performance".[2]
