== In popular culture == [[Characters in Romeo and Juliet#Musicians|Hugh Rebeck]] is a minor character in [[William Shakespeare]]'s ''[[Romeo and Juliet]]'', one of the musicians called by Peter in an oft-cut scene. Presumably, he is named for the instrument that he plays. In a scene in ''[[Don Quixote]]'', a goatherd entertains Don Quixote and [[Sancho Panza]] by playing a rebec and singing a love song. A rebec featured prominently in one of [[Ellis Peters]]' (12th century) [[Brother Cadfael]] stories: Liliwin, the title character of ''The Sanctuary Sparrow'', earned his living by playing that instrument. His rebec was damaged by a mob that accused him of murder, but one of the monks repaired it and returned to him at the end of the story.
