Sarasate's Introduction and Tarentella was first published in 1899 in Leipzig. Like many virtuosic violin showpieces of the period, it announces itself with a slow and straightforward Introduction, before yielding to a faster section, in this case a Tarentella, designed to showcase the virtuosity of the solo violinist.
