Italian modern prog is a contemporary subgenre of progressive rock that extends the rich heritage of Italy's vibrant 1970s scene into the 21st century. It inherits the complex musical structures, dynamic compositions, and theatrical flair of its forebears. While deeply rooted in the symphonic and classical influences that typified the original Italian prog rock wave, it embraces modern production techniques and occasionally incorporates elements from genres like jazz, folk, and electronica. Exemplified by rich, melodic instrumentation and often graced with powerful, operatic vocals performed in Italian, the genre maintains a distinctive romantic and sometimes cinematic quality. Bands and artists within the sphere showcase a dedication to craft and a penchant for lyrical storytelling, often inspired by literary and historical themes.
