Abstract: Romanian music has a substantial compositional typology. The second half of the 20th century has modern vision and is preoccupied with spectral music, meditation music and original sounds, using Romanian folklore as basic compositional principle and defining assured archetypes, in order to integrate randomness regarding control, minimalism, instruments spectrum and electroacoustic music. Well-known composers such as Dan Constantinescu, Aurel Stroe, Wilhelm Berger, Ştefan Niculescu, Anatol Vieru, Myriam Marbé and so many others used dodecaphonic technique as a demonstration of cultural integrity, a system searching the balance between the traditional music and modern concepts such as that all of the music should arise from a single compositional element: the 12-tone row.
