So Much Beauty

Soprano Janeanne Houston has recorded 2 CDs with Lori’s songs: So Much Beauty (Amazon), which includes Lori’s “Two Dickinson Songs” (released in 2004); and The Shining Place (Amazon), which features 2 previously unreleased songs from The Metropolitan Tower cycle (released in 2006).

“Even more effective are the two songs by Lori Laitman, who sets two Sara Teasdale texts with the discerning sensitivity that we have come to expect from her. She has a truly exceptional gift for conveying the profoundest meaning of her texts, yet also taking care that the texts be perfectly understood.” (The Journal of Singing, in a review of The Shining Place)
