For her latest album, Zombie Blizzard, soprano Measha Brueggergosman-Lee found inspiration in another Canadian icon

“If Aaron Davis is doing something, I want to be involved in it,” said the soprano Measha Brueggergosman-Lee. To which the composer Davis responded, “Measha can sing pretty well anything.”

Davis, a pianist/composer/arranger often associated with chanteuse Holly Cole, chimed in: “There’s something about Margaret’s poetry that is so intelligent and so unsentimental.

It’s a shame she missed the Valentine’s Day love-in.

On March 3, the album received its world premiere at Toronto’s Jane Mallet Theatre. The semi-official genre classification foris classical crossover/jazz.
