Which composer wrote the opera "Moby-Dick" that premiered in 2010?

Jake Heggie wrote the opera Moby-Dick that premiered in 2010.

Heggie’s Moby-Dick is an American opera in two acts, with a libretto by Gene Scheer based on Herman Melville’s novel. It received its world premiere on April 30, 2010, at the Winspear Opera House in Dallas, Texas, in a production by The Dallas Opera. Patrick Summers conducted, and Leonard Foglia directed the staging.

The opera was commissioned through a collaboration involving several companies, including Dallas Opera, San Francisco Opera, San Diego Opera, Calgary Opera, and the State Opera of South Australia. Heggie designed the role of Captain Ahab for tenor Ben Heppner, who led the premiere cast. Other principal roles included Stephen Costello as Greenhorn, Morgan Smith as Starbuck, and Jonathan Lemalu as Queequeg.

Thomas Adès, John Adams, and Philip Glass are all major composers associated with contemporary opera, which makes them reasonable distractors, but none wrote this Moby-Dick. Heggie later became especially identified with operas built around dramatic contemporary storytelling, including Dead Man Walking and Great Scott.
