UsOperaweb - Lewis Spratlan Lewis Spratlan and Constance Congden were commissioned in 2001 by San Francisco Opera to write a oneact, chamber opera. Their creation, Earthrise, an opera http://www.usoperaweb.com/2003/spring/spratlan.htm
Extractions: In 2000, when the Pulitzer Prize committee announced its award for music , Lewis Spratlan's Life is a Dream , Act II (concert version) seemed an odd choice to some. The opera had been written in the late '70s but had never been produced (the story follows) until a concert of the second act was given in 2000. For more than thirty years Spratlan has enjoyed a successful career writing music and teaching composition, and even occasionally conducting and playing the oboe. Grove Music has this to say about Spratlan: The New Grove Dictionary of Music Online , ed. L. Macy (accessed 7 March 2003).) US O PERAWEB was curious to speak with Mr. Spratlan about his life and career and his as-yet unproduced opera. Over the course of two conversations we learned a little about him and his journey up to now. "I was born and grew up in Miami, Florida. My parents were something of a pioneer family who had migrated down there in the '30s when Miami was still a small town. My mother was a very fine pianist and teacher and played a somewhat important part in the development of serious music in Miami. She taught at the house and so I was exposed to music all the time. I remember when I was five or six years old making up a piano piece involving one finger from each hand called 'Walking on Stilts.' [Sings 'Walking on Stilts.'] "I started playing oboe when I was in the fourth grade and became heavily involved with the music program at the University of Miami because both of my teachers were there. My first oboe teacher encouraged me to compose while I was still in junior high school and he went out of his way to get pieces of mine performed. At the time I was in a kind of 'Debussian' phase and wrote a fair amount of quasi-impressionist music. I didn't have any particular professional aspirations in that direction, though; I just enjoyed it a lot. My subsequent oboe teacher had enough faith in me to make room for me as an assistant oboist in the University of Miami orchestra and I count that as an enormous part of my early music education. It was an unusual orchestra in that it was a part-university, part-professional orchestra and it managed to attract some really great conductors;
