Summary/Abstract: The contemporary Romanian music, through the work of younger composers, presents itself, with a great diversity, trying to adapt itself to the terms imposed by the present time. The creation efforts, having a large or a small amplitude, aim at opening of a culture that has got its own interesting data and connecting it with the doubtless values required by the universal culture. Following the creation of acknowledged composers, young composers face a new competitiveness which offers the possibilities of active assertion. Through the present study we wish to show in the limelight examples of integration in what concerns the national elements of contemporary music, the assimilations of aspects concerning language noticeable in many of the parts which eclipse the musicological and compositional speech, principles of song construction that rebuilt traditional Romanian stylemes in a personal configuration, individual, of a modern type which finds itself in a number of frameworks during the last decades of Romanian music.
