Stephen Ouimette has been named the Director of the Birmingham Conservatory. Ouimette will serve a three-year term.

He’s taking over from current Director Martha Henry who announced in December that she would be moving on after this year. The Festival says Ouimette and Henry will work together for the next year to ensure a smooth transition.
