Ede Terényi's musical language followed several stages. In his first works we notice the influence of the Hungarian folklore from Transylvania and his superior form of expression form Bartók's music. Then, in the '60s, Ede Terényi founds himself a personal musical language characterized by the transfiguration of the Bartók elements and the Webern serial music in a vision in which the mark of the autochthonous folklore stays clearly perceptible. Later, in the '70s, the penetration towards the music of the contemporary generation was concretized in a new composition orientation based on the musical graphism. Gradually, this tendency to an ever-concise drawing of the musical parameters led to the search for an antipole, found in the autochthonous music of the remote past - XV-XVIth century. More recently, Ede Terényi seeks the possibilities of bringing to life again archaic elements in an ever more modern form. In the field of musicology, Ede Terényi shows himself permanently concerned by stylistic analyses of contemporary music, directly regarding the specific aspects of the musical language and particularly of harmony. The different studies announce for the future a general theory of harmony for the music of the first five decades of the XXth century. His musicological activity also includes the field of essay, which he cultivates with a sustained frequency. Some of these essays being gathered in his book "Music remains Music?".
