Scored by the acclaimed sibling composers, Mychael and Jeff Danna’s to accompany the compelling drama series \u003ci\u003eAlias Grace\u003c\/i\u003e - based on Margaret Atwood’s novel - and starring Sarah Gadon, Anna Paquin, Zachery Levi, Paul Gross, Edward Holcroft, Kerr Logan, Rebecca Liddiard and David Cronenberg. Previewing at Toronto International Film Festival, the mini-series aired on CBC in Canada and Netflix in the Autuman of 2017. Directed by Mary Harron and Sarah Gadon, the program is based on the historical fictional novel by Atwood (\u003ci\u003eThe Handmaid’s Tale\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Blind Assassin\u003c\/i\u003e). The series traces the true-life story of Grace Marks, a young poor Irish immigrant servant and James McDermott, a stable hand, who were both convicted of murdering their employers in Upper Canada during 1843. Marks who was vindicated afterthree decades behind bars went on to become a notorious figure while McDermott was hung. Mychael’s inspiration for the score was to create something that mirrored “the formal rigidity of British Colonial 19th Century society”. An exquisite and compelling composition, it translates both on screen and off, through the brother’s choice of a chamber group to accompany them. The fleeting woodwinds and piano (along with the occasional church organ) create a beautifully romantic and dramatic persona that has an underlying darkness at its core reflecting the crime that underpins the series. Mychael Danna is an Academy Award winning composer whose work includes Ang Lee’s \u003ci\u003eLife Of Pi\u003c\/i\u003e. He has also been recognised with an Emmy for Outstanding Composition for the mini-series \u003ci\u003eWorld Without End\u003c\/i\u003e (2013), the Frederick Loewe Award for Film Composing (2013), the World Soundtrack Awards for Film Composer of the Year, and Best Score of the Year (both 2013), and the Hollywood Film Award for Composer of the Year (2016).
