Morten Lauridsen is currently one of America's most performed composers, with hundreds of performances each year throughout
the world in venues including Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, Walt Disney Concert Hall and Westminster Abbey.
Nearly a million copies of his scores have been sold, and his Dirait-on (from Les Chansons des Roses), O Nata Lux (from Lux Aeterna)
and O Magnum Mysterium have become the all-time
best selling octavos distributed by the Theodore Presser Co., in business since 1783. Recordings of Morten Lauridsen's
compositions are featured regularly on radio broadcast throughout the United States, and he is a frequent interview guest on
radio and television programs, including a recent KCET "Life and Times" program, the oft- repeated national broadcast of
"A Portrait of Morten Lauridsen" on the "First Art" and a nationally-broadcast, Christmas day 1999 feature on NPR's
"Weekend Edition" with Scott Simon. He has received nearly three hundred commission requests, most recently from Harvard
University, and is a frequent guest lecturer and Artist/Composer-in-Residence.
