^ In the case of Four Moments and Imaginary Voyage, the track names are suffixed with Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4, so it's obviously one piece of music. But in the case of The Death Defying Unicorn, it's only when one listens to it that it becomes clear that it's one piece of music (even if it's split over 2 CDs).
 
 
 
 
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Also, so far I have released 3 symphonic prog rock songs that are over 20 minutes long.
Track 3 and 4 of Epic May and Walking the Wavelength, the single track EP. I recorded these in sub-par conditions in my bedroom. ;p Hopefully you'll enjoy 'em.

Hey Czyszy! Just got your message on RYM. Listening to your album now and it is DEFINITELY prog so gladly adding your epic tracks on my list and first song sounds cool so glad to hear some new cool music from Poland. I loved visiting your country!

A lot of my recommendations are mentioned already. If these tracks are already mentioned, I apologise.

Australian band Southern Empire's two albums each have a "mega-epic" on them. The Bridge That Binds (28:24) and Crossroads (29:12). Both are wonderful compositions, with powerful vocals.

If i extended to 15 minutes or something it would be huuuuuuuuuuge. 20 minutes was the cutoff point because that was roughly the length of a side of vinyl during the classic era


Sorry, it's just my own list, and in the end I didn't pay so much attention at what had already been recommended (I did try, but didn't go out of my way to remember everything that had already been mentioned). However, I did have in mind that what was being asked was about over 20 min songs, but I did love some that didn't really get to that length, so I did make sure to specify those cases.

In '75 a lot of countries didn't exist offically and some who did do not anymore…
 
Believe me the peoples in Yugoslavia didn't really feel like one people...

Another concept album, though it is split into several tracks, is actually a single piece of music, is Nektar - Journey To The Centre Of The Eye.

I would recommend the "Transatlantic" cataloque.  Many of the their songs are 30 minutes or more.
