Professors at the Hanns Eisler Academy of Music have voiced ‘dismayed and consternation’ at the replacement of their rector, Robert Ehrlich, by a British outsider, Sarah Wedl-Wilson.

A pro-Ehrlich petition circulated by the violinist Antje Weithaas and the clarinetist Martin Spangenber has been signed by cellists Nicolas Altstaedt and Claudio Bohórquez, violinist Kolja Blacher, pianist Kirill Gerstein, singer Christine Schäfer, violist Tabea Zimmermann and horn player Marie-Luise Neunecker.

In all, around 30 have signed so far.
