Saint Cecilia is the patron saint of musicians and Church music.Her feast day is celebrated in the Roman
Catholic,
Eastern Orthodox, and Eastern Catholic Churches on November 22. She is one of seven women, excluding the
Blessed
Virgin, commemorated by name in the Canon of the Mass. It was long supposed that she was a noble lady of Rome
who,
with
her husband Valerian(us) and his brother Thateus, suffered martyrdom, c. 230, under the emperor Alexander
Severus.
The martyrdom of Cecilia is said to have followed that of her husband and his brother by the prefect Turcius
Almachius.
The officers of the prefect then sought to have Cecilia killed as well. She arranged to have her home preserved
as a
church before she was arrested. At that time, the officials attempted to kill her by locking her in an
overheated
sweat-house (bathhouse). However, the attempt failed, and she was to be beheaded. The executioner attempted to
decapitate her three times unsuccessfully, at which time he fled. Cecilia survived another three days before
succumbing. In the last three days of her life, she opened her eyes, gazed at her family and friends who
crowded
around
her cell, closed them, and never opened them again. The people by her cell knew immediately that she was to
become a
saint in heaven.
The skull of Saint Cecilia is kept as a relic in the cathedral of Torcello.
