This study has two parts: a general theory of experiment, and a descriptive part about Romanian experimental music in the second half of the 20th century. An experiment is an adventure and its nature depends on negation. Time is always the main enemy of an experiment, because in time the experiment transforms itself into tradition. So the concept has to be always redefined and interpreted in a fluid context. From this perspective our study researches experimental music in Romania between 1960-1996. Generations of composers are observed critically according to a chronological category: the decade. In that way one can see the flow and development, in time, of some important musical ideas in Romanian compositional thinking, like heterophony archetypal music, spectralism, events, and folklore.
