Another Audubon Controversy

The Audubon Quartet is making headlines again, three years after the group was dismissed from the faculty of Virginia Tech in the wake of recriminations and lawsuits stemming from the group’s decision to split with its first violinist, David Ehrlich. The Audubon has continued to perform with a new first violinist, ever as Ehrlich has continued to challenge the group’s right to perform at all. Now, Ehrlich has been suddenly and unexpectedly rehired at Virginia Tech as an “outreach” coordinator, and the music faculty are furious.
