Heard this on NPR today while out of town.

Now we won't ever have to worry about Mozart or Brahms, but wouldn't it be a shock for a lesser-known composer to be revealed as having an evil alter-ego?
Saint-Saëns, who predicted to Charles Lecocq in 1901: 'That fellow Ravel seems to me to be destined for a serious future.'
