3 composers (ignoring Enescu) to sample - plenty of others if these appeal at all:
Anatol Vieru - Cello Concerto no. 1

Liana Alexandra - Symphony no. 3

Serban Nichifor - Symphony no. 2

Horatio Radulescu has a certain name, establishing a career in Paris, but I´m less enthusiastic about him, including the famous Piano Concerto "The Quest".

Paul Constantinescu wrote in a big, quite romantic style - try his piano concerto, for example.

Stefan Nicolescu was also prolific and wrote 5 symphonies etc.; he could perhaps-perhaps be compared to some Caucasusian composers, at times searching for a more meditative, static expression, or modernistic experiments. I´ve only heard little by him http://composers21.com/compdocs/niculess.htm

There are many others actually, but recordings are rare and often rather rudimentary in design & sound.

Great thread! I'm of Romanian background, so I want to give these guys a try. I heard Enescu's rhapsody recently at a concert hall, but it didn't appeal to me that much.

Don't judge Enescu by his rhapsodies. Try his third violin sonata.

But I will! ;D

Dorati's Roumanian Rhapsody No. 1 is salsa picante a la habanera.

Radulescu has been mentioned, but Iancu Dumitrescu and Ana-Maria Avram are doing some incredible things.
