Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: August 11, 1720 (SNAC; Great Norwegian Encyclopedia; Répertoire International des Sources Musicales) or August 13, 1720 (Gerbert Freiherr von Hornau, Martin (BLKÖ)).
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.
