This is the third tune in Venice and Naples, a supplement to the second set of Liszt's piano music collection Travel Years. Tarantella is a local folk dance in Naples. It is said that if someone is bitten by a poisonous spider named Tarantella, he must jump violently to be a dance music with almost crazy continuous steps. The music is divided into two parts. The first part is a typical Tarantella dance. Then, kirtland (1797- 1847) was echoed by the bold and bright contrast theme. Liszt quoted this melody and played it, including a long string of decorative patterns of his unique cadenza, and the whole brilliant cadenza. He played the main melody quickly with octaves, and the left and right octaves crossed, which was both magnificent and wonderful.
