Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: November 10, 1668 (People of Modernity Base; filmportal.de; Internet Broadway Database; Integrated Authority File; Nationalencyklopedin; Great Russian Encyclopedia; International Music Score Library Project; SNAC; BnF authorities) or December 10, 1668 (Find a Grave).
The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
