Answer 3

The story behind Tarantella has two aspects, music and dancing. My piano teacher taught me the story because Tarantella is her favorite song. A long time ago in Italy as the other person said, there were many tarantula spiders, and when bitten, the people moved crazily, and if a person played the song, while the sick person or another person danced, it was said to cure the person. It was also said if you did the dance together while someone else played, it would ward off the spiders and protect the people so no one else was bitten. Hope that was informative :)
