Synopsis

Pedro Arriaga was always one to fluster the expectations of the people of Pivámoc. For his mother, he was meant to be a fair-featured girl; yet there he was, a boy with long black hair, cocoa skin, and gentle manners. For his father, he was meant to be a priest; yet he barely goes to church. For the town bully, he was meant to cower in awe and fear of Alejandro’s machismo; yet Pedro defies him. And for the exquisitely beautiful Catholic nun, Sister Margarita, he was meant to only ever be a student. So why can’t she stop thinking about him? Set in 1923 in a small town in Mexico, The Music of Pedro is a captivating from the soaring crescendos of success and love to the darkest notes of cruelty, tragedy, and murder, this stunning glimpse into the nature of humanity resonates with the soul.
