Composer Arnold Schönberg changed the title of one of his compositions because it had 13 letters in the title.
Arnold Schönberg, one of the first composers to embrace atonal modern music, suffered from triskaidekaphobia—the morbid fear of the number 13. When he realized a work of his titled Moses and Aaron contained 13 letters, he removed one of the a’s from “Aaron.” Nevertheless, Schönberg died 13 minutes before midnight on Friday the 13th, July 1951.
