An international quarterly magazine of politics, culture, literature and the arts published at Skidmore College

Rick Moody begins his new Salmagundi music feature, The Home Key, by talking with Peter Stampfel, perhaps most known for founding the Holy Modal Rounders and for his brief tenure in The Fugs. We argue that he should be best known for his recent release, Peter Stampfel’s 20th Century in 100 Songs. Learn more about this inspired project and its deep reckoning with the popular song in The Home Key #1 which you can read by clicking through to the piece on this page. We’re looking forward to featuring Rick’s writing on music and his interviews with musicians, forms he has mastered and animates with his passion for the art.

An Audio Piece by Liv Fidler ‘19 with Poet Chase Twichell
April 16, 20192019 Skidmore graduate Liv Fidler made this audio piece about Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award-winner Chase Twichell’s poem “Sad Song” which was featured in Salmagundi #190-191. Including an interview with and a recording of a reading by Chase, Liv’s piece is a stand-out from a course bringing together the college’s Documentary Studies (MDOCs) program and the magazine. Salmagundi has since it arrived on campus included Skidmore students in the work of the magazine and given them opportunities to work with some of the most prominent writers working today.
