O’s Notes: Rebel Portraiture“is a collection of songs of courage. Each selection is dedicated to someone who lost his or her life for a personal cause or conviction. This musical illustration keeps the memories alive. The honorees include Giles Corey (Salem Witch Trials), Jeffrey Miller (Vietnam War), Berta Cáceres (Honduran Environmentalist) and Nicole Nogwaza (LGBTQ+ Activist). The music has dark tones that represent sorrow but a lurking powerful foundation that stands for the cause. The accompanying liner notes amplify the sentiment completing a memorable package.
