Among Moldova's most prominent composers are [[Gavriil Musicescu]], [[Ștefan Neaga]] and [[Eugen Doga]].

In the field of pop music, Moldova has produced the band [[O-Zone]], who came to prominence in 2003, with their hit song "[[Dragostea Din Tei]]", which topped multiple notable single charts. Moldova has been participating in the [[Eurovision Song Contest]] since 2005. Another popular band from Moldova is [[Zdob și Zdub]] that represented the country in the [[2005 Eurovision Song Contest]], finishing sixth, also in 2021, with a similar result.

In May 2007, [[Natalia Barbu]] represented Moldova in Helsinki at the [[Eurovision Song Contest 2007]] with her entry "[[Fight (Natalia Barbu song)|Fight]]". Natalia squeezed into the final by a very small margin. She took tenth place with 109 points.
Then [[Zdob și Zdub]] again represented Moldova in the [[2011 Eurovision Song Contest]] finishing 12th.

The band [[SunStroke Project]] with [[Olia Tira]] represented the country in the [[2010 Eurovision Song Contest]] with their hit song "[[Run Away (SunStroke Project and Olia Tira song)|Run Away]]". Their performance gained international notoriety as an [[internet meme]] due to the pelvic thrusting and dancing of Sergey Stepanov, the band saxophonist. He has been dubbed "[[Epic Sax Guy]]". SunStroke Project featured again in the 2017 Eurovision entry "Hey Mama" which got third place.<ref>{{cite web|title=2017 Grand Final Scoreboard|url=https://eurovision.tv/event/kyiv-2017/grand-final/scoreboard|website=Eurovision.tv|publisher=European Broadcasting Union|access-date=14 May 2016|archive-date=27 March 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190327152129/https://eurovision.tv/event/kyiv-2017/grand-final/scoreboard|url-status=dead}}</ref>
