Le Tarantella: Spiders’ night!

May 16, 2025

8:00pm, Heliconian Hall

Our modern world is full of evils just as toxic as a spider’s bite.  The rustic tarantella, born as an antidote to illness in rural Italy where there was no access to better medical care, might still today be the best treatment to purify your body and lift your spirits.  But to access the tarantella’s healing power, we’ll need to find the music that pleases the “spider” whose “bite” caused your ailment.  Join us to sample an array of tarantellas which may be virtuosic, melancholic, vulgar, comic, or frenetic.  Somewhere in the mix will be the one that heals you!
