  In this paper we investigate semiclassical rotating string configurations in
the recently found Lunin-Maldacena background. This background is conjectured
to be dual to the Leigh-Strassler beta-deformation of N=4 SYM and therefore a
good laboratory for tests of the AdS/CFT correspondence beyond the well
explored AdS(5)x S(5) case. We consider different multispin configurations of
rotating strings by allowing the strings to move in both the AdS(5) and the
deformed S(5) part of the Lunin-Maldacena background. For all of these
configurations we compute the string energy in terms of the angular momenta and
the string winding numbers and thus provide the possibility of comparing our
results to the anomalous dimension of the corresponding dilatation operator.
