Lori sets existing poetry to music to create classical songs (art songs). She has worked with many of today's important poets — among them Mary Oliver, Thomas Lux, Paul Muldoon, Dana Gioia, Joyce Sutphen, Toi Derricotte, David Mason, Annie Finch, Anne Ranasinghe, and Jerzy Ficowski — in addition to setting such classic poets as Emily Dickinson and William Carlos Williams.
Lori Laitman is one of America's most prolific and widely performed composers of art song. Her music is a favorite of musicians, critics, and audiences.
The NATS Journal of Singing writes: "It is difficult to think of anyone before the public today who equals her exceptional gifts for embracing a poetic text and giving it new and deeper life through music."
Gramophone magazine called Lori's most recent CD, Becoming a Redwood "an extraordinarily impressive achievement...[that gives]...increasing evidence of a major talent. Lori Laitman's beautiful, sensitively crafted songs deserve to be performed widely...."
