Today I'd would like to show you an incredible sound: music and dance: TARANTELLA and PIZZICA . Tarantella becomes from the name of spider. Some time ago in the folk culture, in Puglia (South Italy) persons belief that some spiders called 'Tarantola' from the town of Salento , Taranto,trasmitted a sickness and the only treatment was: to dance ; the "Tarantella" or "Pizzica", that means little-bite. I remember very well that in some old TV programs just from all '50's and '60's this belief was very live: as some orror films old women has paroxisms... very incredible
