D )Why is Saint Cecilia actually Patroness of Musicians?

In 1594, Pope Gregory the thirteenth sanctified her and named her Music Patroness because she showed a great attraction to instruments. However, it looks like the reason why she was named Music Patroness, was a phrase of the Acts of her Martyrdom, that said that she was singing during her Martyrdom. But it was a wrong traslation, because when she talked about organs, she didn´t refer to a musical instrument, but a torture instrument.
