“Zombie Blizzard”, a new song cycle composed by Aaron Davis and sung by world reknowned award winning soprano Measha Brueggergosman-Lee, setting Margaret Atwood’s poems to music, written for brass ensemble, rhythm section and voice. The brass quintet will include trombonist David Pell and other members of the Hannaford St. Silver Band, who commissioned the song cycle. “Zombie Blizzard” has a unique blending of the classical concert aria and jazz-influenced art song where Atwood’s lyrics tackle issues of sexism, humour, gender inequality, and grief.
