I am going for C for sure on this one
this is the case of past perfect tense followed by past simple... the concert had finished and audience had left sometime in the past before maestro relaxed... 2 actions preceeded the fact that maestro relaxed. The only choices that put maestro in past simple are A and C
A is incorrect, because... oh... what the hell... C uses past perfect perfectly... even has "since" which is usually used in past perfect.

go for C
(A), (B) 'S ~ing ans S ~ing' and 'because and because' don't look good, because two events are not separate ones (concert end, and audience out).
In comparison with (D), (E),
tense of (C) looks good. 'had been finished', 'had filtered out', and 'relaxed'
For reference, 'since' in (C) is thought to be used as 'As' not 'From'.
