With Beethoven as a victim, what is the name of the superstition that a composer will die after finishing a certain symphony?

• Curse of the Ninth:The curse of the ninth is a superstition connected with the belief that a ninth symphony is destined to be a composer's last; that the composer will die while or after writing it, or before completing a tenth. Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Schubert, Antonin Dvorák and Vaughan Williams all died after completing their Ninths, Anton Bruckner died with his Ninth unfinished – and Gustav Mahler passed away while writing his tenth. Other composers cited as examples of the curse include: Kurt Atterberg, David Maslanka, Vincent Persichetti, Alfred Schnittke, Roger Sessions and Elie Siegmeister.
