In 2014, Traiger wrote the music for the award-winning documentary movie "Fukushima Nichts Ist Wie Es War."

Laurence Traiger teaches at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater München and the Innsbruck branch of Mozarteum University of Salzburg. His areas of interest include music history, theory for music teachers, composition and arrangement, and vocal polyphony of the 16th Century. At the 2013 Internationale Sommerakademie Mozaertum, Traiger was featured in a Komponistenporträt (the presentation of a living composer in talk and music).

2010

His list of works include chamber music, choral music, orchestral music, film music as well as compositions for educational works and historical instruments. Many of his works reflect an interest in Jewish mysticism. For didactic works he strives to provide something that the student could use as a vehicle for expression, attempting to capture the teenage disposition in a moody and thoughtful, yet energetic and optimistic tone. Traiger has received numerous commissions from renowned ensembles and radio choirs. Traiger has had many collaborations with the Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk Choir, including an invitation to compose a piece for Schumann-2010, honoring the 200th anniversary of Robert Schumann's birth. His work has appeared on MDR's CD "Das Hohelied Salomos." He has been described by Howard Arman as one of the few composers of music for Baroque instruments today.

"According to Juliet" is a monodrama (in four scenes for soprano, flute and accordion) written by Traiger. Using excerpts from the original text of Arthur Brooke's Romeus and Juliet, written shortly before Shakespeare's birth, Traiger tells the beautiful but hopeless love story from Juliet's perspective. The work was premiered at the 2007 Black Forest Music Festival in Badenweiler; the Munich premiere of the libretto was 16 March 2010. Reviewer Bianca Flier reported that the interplay of the voice and instruments grips the audience until the dramatic finale, and that "the composer has created a moving and compelling, almost unearthly work."

2006

The OCM has long collaborated with Traiger, and premiered many of his works. Traiger and Frederiksen have other collaborations, most recently their work honoring Baroque architect Domenico Martinelli. For "Project Martinelli," Traiger was commissioned, and wrote a Baroque piece for arciliuto, theorbo and soprano based upon text by Frank Lloyd Wright.

His 2015 piece for the choir, "Till This Night," uses the famous monologue from Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" in which Romeo says of his mistress: "Swear it, my eye; before this happy night not you know what beauty is."
