Was Domenico Scarlatti from a rich or poor family?
It is highly unlikely that Domenico was poor as his father, Alessandro, was a celebrity composer in Europe. In his own career, Domenico was sponsored by the Church (the Vatican, no less!) and by the kings of Spain and Portugal at different times. His portrait was painted by Velasco where he is pictured wearing the regalia of the Knights of the Order of Santiago. There is no biography I know of where he is described as anything but a success, and he certainly was not written of as dying a pauper...
When did Richard Wagner learn the Wagner tuba?
The problem with this question is that Richard Wagner doesn't have the Wagner Tuba history itself. We have to see both histories. In 1853, he visited Paris were he visited the shop of Adolph Sax inventor of the Saxphone. It was then that he got the inspiration and invented the Wagner Tuba. The thing is that his invention don't mean he did in fact learn to play it. Nowhere in history says he did play that instrument. He wanted a more mellow sound compared to trombones and he so he invented the Wagner Tuba. He did play the piano.
