James Conlon
James Conlon (born March 18, 1950)〔(Sony Classical )〕 is an American conductor of opera, and symphonic and choral works. He is Music Director of Los Angeles Opera, Ravinia Festival, summer home of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and Cincinnati May Festival. He is known for his efforts in reviving music by composers suppressed during the Nazi regime.〔(''The New York Times'', February 10, 2008 )〕
==Early years==
Conlon grew up in a family of five children on Cherry Street in Douglaston, Queens, New York City. His mother, Angeline L. Conlon, was a freelance writer. His father was an assistant to the New York City Commissioner of Labor in the Robert F. Wagner administration.〔''The New York Times'', January 10, 1987〕 His siblings were not musically inclined, nor were his parents. When he was eleven, he went to a production of ''La traviata'' by an amateur company founded by the mother of a friend (Edith Mugdan, the mother of the young Conlon's best friend, Walter Mugdan, and the founder of the North Shore Opera 〔''The New York Times'', October 7, 2001〕). He asked for music lessons and became a treble (boy soprano) in a children's chorus in an opera company in Queens. He dreamed about being a tenor, then a baritone, and even wanted to sing the role of ''Carmen'' at one point. Finally it dawned on him that the only way to do everything in opera was to become an operatic conductor.〔(San Francisco Symphony )〕
