There was a dance commonly called "tarantella" which was widely done at Israeli folk dance sessions at least as recently as the late 1970s and early 1980s which used that tune.<br /><br />Back in the relatively early days of Israeli Dancing Elektra Records produced a series of dance music albums featuring the Oranim Zabar Folk Dance Orchestra with the Israeli singer Geula Gill. One of those albums was called The Whole World Dances. I believe it included a version of the tarantella heard in this performance.
