Correct Answer: worse than expected
Solution : The third option is the correct answer.
The comparative form worse than expected is the correct way to express a level of performance that falls below what was anticipated. In English, when making a comparison, the correct structure is worse than when comparing two things.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "The performance of the musicians was rather worse than expected by the audience."
