Rectifying the error:

• In the question given, we must find out the error in it and also correct it.
• When we are given a sentence to spot the mistake, we must check if there is agreement among the parts of speech in it.
• Especially, the agreement between subject and verb must be looked into.
• Here the subject is 'musician' the verb is 'had been left' though both are third person, the voice is wrongly used here.
• The sentence begins with the subject 'musician' which means it is an active voice sentence.
• But the verb is in passive form 'had been left'. It should be in its active form 'had left'.
• Therefore the answer is: The musician had left the stage before the audiences stood up.
