The 20 Best Progressive Rock Suites
57 July 2013 by Facelift27
Here's the list of the 20 best suites (tracks composed by a succession of musical themes more or less distinct, with a flavor usually epic) in the history of Progressive Rock (as my opinion). This list is not classified, because in a genre so broad, varied and with so many different conceptions of music, you can not reward a group or an artist at the expense of another. Enjoy these long pieces of infinite originality!

Questa è una lista delle migliori 20 suites (ovvero brani composti da una successione di temi musicali più o meno distinti, dal sapore solitamente epico) della storia del rock progressivo (come mia opinione). Questa lista non è una classifica, perchè in un genere così ampio, vario e con così tante concezioni musicali diverse, non puoi premiare un gruppo o un artista a discapito di un altro. Godetevi questi lunghi pezzi di infinita originalità!
