Welcome Dancers!
You are cordially invited to join our cast for a special guest choreographer’s staging and showcase of Rossini’s Tarantella.
All levels and abilities are welcome in our cast. This special performance intensive will take place in four rehearsals with world-renowned La Scala ballet dancer and choregrapher, Matteo Corbetta, visiting for only one week from Milan, Italy.
Matteo is back by popular demand, following a sold-out NYC showcase of Baccanale in March 2018!

The Choreographer
Matteo Corbetta
Milan, Italy
Matteo was a member Teatro alla Scala, performing on international stages throughout Europe, Japan, and the United States. In 2004, he founded the Kormat Dance Company which has performed throughout Italy and on live television.
Matteo is a certified ABT National Training Curriculum teacher, from Primary to 7th level and partnering (the highest level of certification).
He teaches master classes throughout Europe and the USA, and is sought after for his highly refined ballet technique classes and his custom-tailored Kormat Method Floor Barre classes.
The Piece
Rossini’s Tarantella
Based in Southern Italian folklore, the Tarantella’s origin is connected with tarantism. Tarantism was a mysterious “illness” that appeared in Italy in the 15th to the 17th century. It was obscurely associated with the bite of the tarantula spider. Those who were bit by the spider were seemingly cured by frenzied dancing!
Today, the Tarantella is an energetic and lively dance that continues to be a favorite amongst dancers around the world!
We have the special privilege of performing Rossini’s Tarantella, straight from Italy!
