Date of birth

edit

Most sources say he was born 16 December 1936 (many even mentioning “Beethoven’s birthday”, which is at best a guess), but The Canadian Encyclopedia, International Who’s Who in Classical Music 2003, and IMDb all say 16 September 1936. I’m pretty sure Baker’s Dictionary (ed. Nicolas Slonimsky) also says 16 September.

Is there a birth certficate or other authoritative source that settles the matter? -- Jack of Oz ... speak! ... 00:40, 24 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
