Ezra Laderman's compositions range from solo instrumental and vocal works to large-scale choral and orchestral music. He has also written music to the Academy Award-winning films "The Eleanor Roosevelt Story" and "Black Fox", and an opera based on the life of Marilyn Monroe. Laderman incorporates a lyrical style into a contemporary context, using tonal material in combination with atonal elements and seeking out unusual formal structures for his compositions. His writing has evolved over the years in that the music, although rigorously conceived, speaks with immediacy and accessibility. |
