The Piano score and complete instrumental parts for Karl Aage Rasmussen's Liederkreis. Rasmussen organised five songs by Robert Schumann into a large cycle, within which each song is rotating forwards and backwards in several tempo-layers at the same time. The circle consists of two independent but complimentary orbits - one for each singer. Written in 1986, it was commissioned by, and dedicated to, the Washington New Music Ensemble. The full instrumentation consists of Soprano and Baritone voices with Flute, Violin, Clarinet, Vibraphone and an amplified Piano.

O Magnum Mysterium, commissioned by Marshall Rutter in honor of his wife, Terry Knowles, has had several thousand performances throughout the world and dozens of recordings since its 1994 premiere by the Los Angeles Master Chorale. I have also arranged the work for solo voice and piano or organ (recorded on Northwest Journey by Jane Thorngren accompanied by the composer), men's chorus and brass ensemble; H. Robert Reynold's stunning adaptation for symphonic winds was recently premiered in Minneapolis by the Thornton Wind Symphony. For centuries, composers have been inspired by the beautiful O Magnum Mysterium text depicting the birth of the new-born King amongst the lowly animals and shepherds. This affirmation of God's grace to the meek and the adoration of the Blessed Virgin are celebrated in my setting through a quiet song of profound inner joy. – Morten Lauridsen.
