Claudio Rebagliati was by far the most prominent and influential musician in the 19th century Lima; despite of this, he lagged far behind in the recognition compared to the celebrated José Bernardo Alzedo. Based on the analysis of a musical work that strongly links them, both with each other and with the cultural and political context of their time, a critical approach is offered to the characterization of these characters, and the extent to which Rebagliati was one of the architects of the canonization of Alzedo, as well the political motivations of this process. This leads to a reflection on the elusive nature of Peru and its search, two centuries after the national independence.
