Abstract
At the time of the Independence of the 1990s Lithuanian music was marked by a short but very important period which saw the rise of new multidisciplinary approaches, namely happenings, actions or performances. This new wave, initiated by young composers and musicologists, attempted to delineate the break with the aesthetics imposed by the ideological Soviet system, even if that was not valid any longer at that time.Young musicians were not only able to assimilate the public space anew, but they also felt free to rethink their whole environment aesthetically by discarding its neutrality, getting rid of the ideological restrictions, and thus turning statics into dynamics. Expression of opposition not only towards certain stylistic paradigms but to the academization of art or the art tradition as such—also marked opposition towards the ideologization of art.
