Top choirmaster Michael Brewer and his ex-wife have been found guilty of indecently assaulting a former music student more than 30 years ago.
The former national youth choir music director, aged 68, was convicted of sexually abusing the victim in his office at Chetham's School of Music in Manchester when she was aged 14 and 15.
His ex-wife, Kay Brewer, 68, was also convicted of indecently assaulting her when she was an adult at their former family home.
The jury at Manchester Crown Court is still deliberating on charges that Brewer raped the same victim when she was aged 18 and that Mrs Brewer aided and abetted the attack.
Brewer was cleared of one charge of indecently assaulting the victim as a child in his home.
One of the defendants' four daughters audibly gasped in the public gallery when the jury returned its verdict on Kay Brewer.
The sole complainant in the case said she was abused by Brewer as she visited his office. The jury was told she did not consider it sexual abuse at the time and did not make an official complaint.
In a separate incident, Brewer quit Chetham's in 1994 after an inappropriate relationship with a 17-year-old girl.
The court heard she regularly visited his office and recalled he would persuade her to take off her top and bra and he would fondle her.
Giving evidence, Brewer admitted the 1994 affair. The full extent of the relationship was covered up as he resigned.
Brewer went on to become the artistic director of the National Youth Choirs of Britain and has directed the World Youth Choir.
