Outsider music: classics of American classical music (56) - William Schuman - New England Triptych (1956) William Schuman, New England Tryptich A child of Hindemith's neoclassicism (thus austere music, rhythmically bold and not easily digestible), Schuman was probably one of the best American symphonists and orchestrators of the 20th century, as well as one of my absolute favorites. Also well-known as an "arts administrator," he was the head of the Juilliard High School and later president of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, helping many young American composers.

The Outsiders - Prison Song
Other Outsiders. And here we have a masterpiece album. An elegant freak; messy but precious, a mix of so much stuff from the period with class and acid together. Now I'll also revisit the rest of Wally.
Speaking of Wally Tax... as far as I remember, he deserves a fitting tribute on the deb

PARODIAX ARTWORK 50 ®
[Fifty pills (re)dressed with good humor during quarantine][00]

Hey there, how's it going, people of the couch potato?!
Are you feeling anxious because forced confinement has introduced you to strange individuals sharing your apartment?
Has paranoia got you wandering around the house with a Super Liquidator loaded with ethyl alcohol?
Has a month not been enough to find the secret spot where your wife hides everything you can never find?
Don’t despair and cheer up, Mike Buongiorno is back with Pippo Baudo's scalp and Amadeus's nose.
Hola folks! Break out the streamers, horns, and party hats because we’re starting again!
This time we’re playing with 50 covers personally modified by yours truly, and I’ll be clear from the start:
*the answers are within everyone's reach; this round you'll mainly need to be quick in responding*
By the way, did you guess the one above? Right, I had no doubts!

The instructions:
From Monday to Friday, posts will be at 9:00 PM. On Saturdays and holidays at 7:00 PM.
In case of unforeseen events and/or impossibility (communicated in advance), the episode will be postponed to the next day.
The correct answer includes the name of the artist/band and the name of the work, or, at most, just the name of the work.
Answers with just the name of the artist/band will be deemed invalid.

Is everything clear? Questions? Good, see you tomorrow with the first episode!

Outsider music: classics of American classical music (57) - Samuel Barber - Adagio For Strings (1936) Samuel Barber - Adagio for Strings Probably the most famous American composition of the 20th century, it has become almost a curse for its composer. For 99% of the population, Barber is "the one who wrote the Adagio." A somewhat reactionary composer, but talented, Barber spent the twentieth century shaping a sort of (neo)romanticism that was out of time, and in this field, he was probably the best across the ocean. There is so much more beyond the renowned Adagio.

CRANES - Everywhere
Seen live as the opening act for the Cure, a decade ago. Yes, it's quite singular that a cult band like the Cranes opens for others, even if they are giants. They haven't lost their edge and still manage, with great delicacy, to sweep you away into that fantastic whirlwind of emotions that only they can unleash. For the record, I attended that live show more for them than for my beloved Cure, whom I’ve seen four times already.
