Why is there no word for I in Aud muzica?

Because Romanian often drops the subject pronoun when it is already clear from the verb form.

• aud = I hear
• the ending of the verb already shows that the subject is I

So Eu aud muzica is also possible, but eu is usually unnecessary unless you want emphasis or contrast, like:

• Eu aud muzica, dar el nu o aude. = I hear the music, but he doesn’t hear it.
