Abstract

In this study I set out to trace the life of Romanian composer Grigore Nica (1936-2009), researching his files held in the archives of the Union of Composers, National University of Music in Bucharest and the National Council for the Study of the Securitate Archives, as well as personal correspondence and interviews I conducted with some of his colleagues, in order to discover the reason for his political imprisonment in 1952-1953 and the consequences of this traumatic experience that followed him throughout his life (e.g. in 1958 he was expelled from the Ciprian Porumbescu Conservatory).
