Siegfried Mauser is finally on his way to jail for multiple sexual offences against job applicants and colleagues.

UPDATE: Among the luminaries who have contributed to this celelbration of a sex-pest are the leading German (male) composers Rihm, Hiller, Reimann, Trojahn, Widmann, Zender and Lachenmann.

The editors are Borchmeyer, Dieter / Popp, Susanne / Steinbeck, Wolfram
