Tarantella is danced during the evening in some Sorrentine Villas, nevertheless the show is still worth seeing, since it is infinitively graceful and evocative, there are no dancers trained according to the "rules" of a dance master, but fishermen, artisans, children of sailors that have learned from their parents the ancient national dance and most of them wear for this occasion authentic dresses, a little decorated, kept in the familiar wardrobes.
The dancers of the Tarantella also participate in these moments and come dressed as the chorus, or as the orchestra, playing the characteristic instruments of ‘Partenope’ music, like the ‘putìpu,’ ‘scetavajasse,’ ‘tric-ballac,’ ‘nacchere (castanets),’ tambourines and others.
In the centuries La Tarantella Sorrentina has sharpened it’s fundamental qualities of grace and elegance becoming a unique spectacle among it’s genre; so, while this show benefits from the reputation of the general Tarantella, one needs to be aware of the fact that the Tarantella Sorrentina is … a whole other thing.
