Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino in Session

Lopa Kothari presents new music from around the world and a studio session with Italian tarantella band Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino.

Lopa Kothari with new tracks from across the globe, and a studio session with Italian tarantella band Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino.

Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino come from Salento in southern Italy. The band was formed in 1975, and in 2007 the violinist Mauro Durante took over as leader of the band from his father. Their style of music is based on the 'pizzica' dance style, which is linked to tarantella, where dancers who have supposedly been bitten by the tarantula spider dance furiously to get rid of the poison.
