Farewell, Maestro Kraemer!

We want to wish Orchestra Indiana’s Artistic Director Matthew Kraemer all the very best as he begins his new position as Music Director of the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra next season! The April 28th and 29th Golden Age of Hollywood Concerts will be Maestro Kraemer's farewell to Orchestra Indiana.

Following two back to back successful seasons, Maestro Matthew Kraemer and Orchestra Indiana have announced that the 2022-2023 season will be his last as OI Artistic Director. Kraemer was recently named the new Music Director of the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra and will assume his full time duties in New Orleans this summer.

Kraemer, OI Artistic Director since 2021, has overseen a time of tremendous growth and change with unprecedented musical success, artistic development, community engagement, and educational investment. It is Orchestra Indiana’s hope that Kraemer will be able to continue his career growth and conducting presence in Classical music both nationally and internationally as he steps into his new position.

Of his time with the OI, Kraemer said, “It has been an honor to serve as Artistic Director for Orchestra Indiana. With the talented musicians onstage and a committed board and staff behind the scenes, I know the future is very bright for orchestral music in Delaware and Grant counties. I look forward to witnessing the continued growth of this organization in seasons to come.”
