Michigan’s Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra has announced that RAYMOND HARVEY will step down as music director at the end of the 2016-17 season and assume the title of music director emeritus. Harvey has led the orchestra for eighteen years, and for the last two years has also served as associate professor at the University of Houston’s Moores School of Music and music director of the Moores Opera Center, posts that will continue. The KSO is forming a search committee to select Harvey’s successor, and states that Resident Conductor Daniel Brier “will provide continuity through this time of transition.”
