Serbo-Croat term or phrase: 'ozbiljna' muzika
ne mogu reæi "classical music" jer se radi o SAVREMENOJ ozbiljnoj muzici

Može li se uopšte reæi "serious" music??

English translation:contemporary classical music
Explanation:
This terms exists... I hope it matches what you mean. Classical music doesn't have to refer to the 1800's and 1900's. I would choose "contemporary" over "modern" because modern often implies a specific movement, whereas contemporary just means now.

I would not use "serious" because that implies that someone else's music is not serious...

I found some links on modern and contemporary classical music.
