This is one of those cases where, when reading this book, my dear
readers, you need some things: a good pair of eyes, a mind free
from distractions; and, of course, some free time that you can owe
to yourself to enjoy the good reading.
People are not decided yet. Was he a hero? Maybe not. At least not
one of those most decorated heroes we hear about, with hanging
medals from everywhere. Then again, he might have been one of those
unsung heroes.
Did he change the world, like some did? Of course not. Or, did he
teach us a new perspective, like Gandhi did? Probably not.
Why then was he such an interesting man? He was terrific! I was
very lucky to meet him. He changed a family, a group of kids and
their parents, a whole city; but most important, he changed
himself.
Francisco Guerrero cuenta las peripecias de su peregrinacion a
Tierra Santa, a finales del siglo XVI. A pesar de piratas,
ladrones, turcos, guerras, jenizaros, privaciones, multitud de
monedas de oro gastadas en exacciones abusivas y unas distancias de
miles de leguas, este Maestro de Capilla de la Catedral de Sevilla
consiguio llegar a Jerusalen, la Aciudad dichosaA, y visitar los
lugares donde tuvieron lugar los principales Misterios de la fe
cristiana. Este precioso librito nos permite compartir las
emociones uno de los grandes autores de la musica espanola al
pisar, como un simple peregrino, los lugares por los que camino el
mismo Cristo, al celebrar la Misa en el Santo Sepulcro, cuando
contemplo por primera vez Jerusalen, Belen o Damasco o en el trance
de ser capturado por piratas. Lo que le impulso a emprender un
viaje tan arduo y peligroso fue, curiosamente, su labor como musico
catedralicio y compositor de numerosos villancicos, algunos de los
cuales se han anadido al final del libro.
