The conviction of Siegfried Mauser for sexual assault of two female colleagues is yielding consequences beyond the courtroom, where Mauser still has the right of appeal.

The Salzburg Mozarteum is reported to be seeking a new rector to replace Mauser, whom the Munich judge designated ‘a groper’.

The city of Salzburg is also considering a postponement of the next music biennale, of which Mauser has been artistic director.
