Discovering Prog in High Heels


Episode 48 - Symphonic PROG

September 25, 2014

What defines SYMPHONIC PROG??? Some major aspects are…


Mixture of elements from different genres.

Complex time signatures.

Lush keyboards.

Explorative and intelligent lyrics, in some cases close to fantasy literature, Sci Fi and even political issues.

Non commercial approach

Longer format of songs


That being said, you might have some pretty obvious bands in mind, but don’t be so hasty!!! I’ve got some bands that are both progressive, symphonic AND (as I always try to be) unexpected.


I wish you a wonderful time listening to this beautiful music and know that (as always) it is sent with love. xo
