Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: December 7, 1879 (BnF authorities; SNAC; Internet Broadway Database; Find a Grave; Integrated Authority File; International Music Score Library Project) or December 2, 1879 (The Fine Art Archive Db; Czech National Authority Database; Olomouc City Library regional database; Česká divadelní encyklopedie).
