Saint Cecilia was sentenced to die for her Christian faith. She was sentenced by Turco Almaquio who sentenced her to drown in the bathroom of her house, but she survived. They tried to burn her with boiling water, but she survived. So, they decided to behead her, but the executioner, after several attempts, failed.Santa Cecilia survived for three days and finally died on November 22.

In the Acts one can read in the text "Canténdibus órganis Cæcilia Dómino decantábat dicens...", something that the copyist transcribed as: "While the musical instruments played, Cecilia sang to the God saying...". It was not that 'organis', the musical instrument that was being talked about, but it was a term that in the third century was used to refer to the bellows that was used to provide heat, which means that it was an instrument of torture.

Since then, many images of Saint Cecilia playing the organ have been painted, when she was being subjected to excruciating torture. However, it was decided not to correct this error, and in 1594 Pope Gregory XII declared her patron saint of musicians.
