Tarantella Napoletana

The "Tarantella Napoletana" is the tarantella associated with Naples. It is familiar to North American viewers of popular media as a quintessentially "Italian" musical riff or melody.

Musical scores are temporarily disabled.

Examples of its use include Gioachino Rossini's "La Danza" from Soirées Musicales (1830–1835).[1]

The tarantella was adapted into the 1950 song "Lucky, Lucky, Lucky Me" written by Buddy Arnold and Milton Berle, and performed by Evelyn Knight and the Ray Charles Band.[2]
