When I play in my PC a Naxos CD of Domenico Scarlatti's keyboard sonatas (Balázs Szokolay / piano, highly recommended), my Real Player provides the following interesting piece of information:
Scarlatti was born on the same day as both Handel and Bach (26 October
1685).
Many music and history books will need to be rewritten to reflect this amazing fact.
