Learn to play the tarantella rhythm so that you can apply it in any song. More than that, learn to play it in a way that increases the energy of your performance. We’ll examine the strong melodic lines of Italian music, from Nino Rota’s movie soundtracks to the classic ‘Bella Ciao’ and a variety of tarantellas. Two of my top five accordion tracks are in this section – Nino Rota’s ‘Godfather Waltz’ and ‘Manine Di Primavera’ from the movie Amarcord.
