The New York Philharmonic dismissed two players after an inquiry revealed credible claims of sexual assault and harassment, emphasizing adherence to legal procedures.
Interim leader Deborah Borda stated, 'The facts strongly supported our case,' and noted patterns of sexual misconduct and abuse of power.
The investigation allowed 11 women to come forward with accusations against principal oboist Liang Wang, including inappropriate relationships and assault.
The orchestra had previously attempted to fire the accused musicians in 2018 but faced challenges, leading to their paid leave earlier this year.
