Synopsis

Product Description

Lori Laitman, one of America s most prolific and widely performed composers of art song comments: The songs on this CD are for solo voice and piano, and all have been composed since 2000, making them 21st century art song. The poems were written between 1612 and 2008...My goal is to create dramatic music to express and magnify the meaning of the poem...Each song becomes my musical interpretation of the poem.

CD Reviews

Poems into lyrics: wings onto beautiful but flightless birds

Linnea Johnson | Topeka, Kansas | 10/08/2009

(3 out of 5 stars)

"Laitman's "Within These Spaces" is a beautiful, if operatic, rendering of a range of exquisite works by women, an amazing lyrical scrapbook of contemporary writings amplified through musical interpretation."
