“The US has a remarkable and growing group of young opera composers: Missy Mazzoli, Nico Muhly, Ellen Reid, Gregory Spears, David T Little, David Hertzberg, Dave Malloy, Paola Prestini, and many more. Perhaps less well known, at least outside America, is the pivotal role played in many of those composers’ careers by Beth Morrison and the PROTOTYPE Festival, which she co-founded.”
