The heart of rhythm, the supreme artistry of tamburello and the historical evolution of Pizzica and Taranta have found their highest expression and success in ZIMBARIA's music (TARANTA is a kind of tarantella linked with "tarantismo", the phenomenon where women go in trance like possessed because of poisoned spider's bite). Last album "Baciu 'nvelenatu" represents a milestone in the Italian roots music and a turning-point in TARANTA evolution towards new horizons.
