姚晨的音樂語言根植于東方和西方的音樂傳統，同時充分運用了當代作曲技法的開放性融合了二者。他對音樂時間、音色、律動、結構及表情的感知都處于許多臨界地帶：新與舊，東與西，非理性的神秘與理性的邏輯感。同時，對獨立電影和實驗劇場的涉獵也有效地拓寬了他的音樂種類和風格。這些感知體驗深深滲透在他的創作之中，體現了他對新音樂創作在世界當代多元文化發展中的觀點和態度。這種跨文化的審美，在他的樂隊作品《詩兩首》，器樂劇場《波羅密多》， 戲劇空間《琵琶彈戲：西廂記三折》，中西混合室內樂《駿》、《滄浪》、《嬋娟》等作品中都有集中的呈現，他們充分展示了作曲家在處理音樂戲劇性、混合不同音樂材料風格等方面的創作才能。

他的作品也被許多重要的大型演奏團體演奏過，這包括獲得格萊美古典大獎的美國Saint Paul室內交響樂團、美國Pacifica弦樂四重奏團和美國eighth blackbird六重奏團。此外，還有著名的美國St. Luke’s 交響樂隊，法國Lorraine國家交響樂團，加拿大Winnipeg交響樂團， 美國 Promusica 室內交響樂團 ，芝加哥交響樂團麾下的Civitas Ensemble， 美國Tanglewood 音樂節New Fromm Players，法國Diotima Quatuor弦樂四重奏團，新加坡唐弦樂四重奏團，以色列當代音樂團, 香港新音樂團，美國Camerata和Quintet of the Americas木管五重奏團等均成功演繹過姚晨的音樂作品。
