"New Music" was a term used by TW Adorno to refer to post-modern(ist) music. Particularly Twelve-Note Music. Unfortunately his book "Theorie der Neuen Musik" was translated as "Theory of Modern Music" which is very misleading. Adorno (and others) refered to Wagner as Modern music. The problem is that once you arrive at terms like "modern" or "new" it's difficult to find a term for whatever comes next. "Post-New Music" seems a little silly. So yes, imo "New Music" is not really such a good idea.
