Abstract

Siglo XVIII. Konü, un joven indígena huérfano, le obsesiona la música, aún antes de la llegada de los españoles, que lo instruyen en música sacra. Supera a Padilla, su maestro criollo, y se convierte en un gran compositor. Padilla, presa de los celos, roba sus obras, aunque no podrá robar su legado. (Texto tomado de la fuente).

Konu is an orphaned, indigenous, young man obsessed with music. He was so even before the Spaniards arrived in the colonial times. Padilla, a creole music teacher, trains Konu in sacred music. Konu surpasses Padilla and becomes a great composer. Padilla steals Konu’s work because he is seized with jealousy, although he can never steal his legacy.
