Group of answer choices a.They were born within a month of each other, and their birthplaces were less than 100 miles apart. b.Their birthplaces were less than 100 miles apart. c.They were born within a month of each other. d.They toured Europe as child prodigies together.

Answer 1

Answer:

A, B, and C.

Explanation:

Johann Sebastian Bach was a composer and musician during the Baroque Period, Germany. Whereas, George Frederick Handel was an instrumental composer.

They are known as twin creative peaks as they both were born the same year and about 80 miles apart from each other. They both, though, were contemporaries, yet they both uniquely contributed to the music of the Baroque Period.

They both were born in Germany, though Handel later moved to London and adopted British citizen.

So, from the given options, except D, all are correct because they never met each other thus, never toured together. thus, the correct options are A, B, and C.
