Summary/Abstract: Centering on the changes in the musical language of the composer, the division into periods of Paul Constantinescu’s creation represents, essentially, the evolution of a modal thinking particularised by the passing from the diatonic phase to that of chromatic, from the modern stadium of modal towards that of the contemporary neo-modal of synthesis.
