Piatti, one of the greatest virtuoso cellists of the 19th century, wrote his Tarantella as a brilliant showpiece full of fire and energy. The tarantella is a fast Italian dance, traditionally whirling and feverish, and Piatti captures that spirit with dazzling runs, quicksilver bowings, and playful exchanges between cello and piano.

The piece begins with an explosion of momentum and never really lets go—demanding agility, precision, and stamina from the cellist, while also giving the pianist a lively role. Beneath the virtuosity, though, there’s also charm and wit: it’s music meant to delight and excite an audience.

Often called “the Paganini of the cello,” Piatti not only captured the spirit of Italian virtuosity in this work but also paid direct homage to Paganini in his own career: just as Paganini wrote 24 Caprices for violin, Piatti composed 12 Caprices for cello, establishing himself as a true master of the instrument’s possibilities.

Performing the Tarantella is always a thrill—it feels like a celebration of the cello’s brilliance and athleticism, with just enough mischief to keep both player and listener on edge until the very last note.
