Hortensio is a gentleman of Padua who is interested in marrying Bianca Minola, sister of the shrew Kate. He disguises himself as a music teacher to get in the house with a view to spending some time with Bianca. Kate, however, "breaks him to the lute" by smashing it over his head, and he doesn't seem to be making any headway with Bianca, who is totally wrapped up in Lucentio. He therefore gives up on Bianca and marries a widow of the town. She is somewhat headstrong, and Hortensio visits Petruchio to get some ideas on how to "tame a wife". Again, he is not particularly successful; his new wife, when entreated to come to Hortensio, says "she will not come" and bids him come to her.
