Bio:: Danaë Xanthe Vlasse (http://www.danaevlasse.com/) is an award-winning composer whose music has been featured on international radio broadcast, and has been a contributor to film music. She holds a degree in Piano Performance, she is the director of Music Vision Studios and she is an MTNA Nationally Certified Teacher with over a decade of teaching experience. She is a multi-recipient of the Global Music Awards, the Prestige Music Awards, and the Clouzine International Music Awards, as well as a multiple-winner of the MTAC “Composers Today” Advanced Division. She has been nominated for the Independent Music Awards (NYC), the Peace Song Awards, and multi-nominated for the Hollywood Music in Media Awards.

Mrs. Vlasse’s highly structured compositions of lyrical, Neo-Romantic style have been extremely well received by critics, audiences and professional musicians, including pianist Yuja Wang, who is considering scheduling Mrs. Vlasse’s three big Fantasies into future performances!

Nearly all of Mrs. Vlasse’s music has been premiered; most recently, her music has been performed by pianists Robert Thies, Nadia Spachenko, Mina Perry, Bryan Pezzone, Tri Nguyen (France), Carlos Marquez (Spain), Joaquim Bonal Sarro (Spain) and Harout Senekeremian, GRAMMY-winning soprano Hila Plitmann, flutist Ying Li, chamber trio Artifacto Ensemble, Long-Beach-Symphony principal cellist, Cecilia Tsan, and LA-Philharmonic violinist Mischa Lefkowitz.
David Wilcox, the director and choreographer of the Longbeach Ballet, has also choreographed dance to Danaë's music.

Mrs. Vlasse’s native France is a clear influence in her harmonic language and melodic ideas, while her Greek heritage guides her Classical approach to structure with balanced structural form and carefully measured phrases. When asked about what inspires her music, Danaë is quick to respond “My need to create is so profound that I would keep writing even if no one ever heard a note of my music, but I am always honored for people to listen; I feel I have so much to say for which words are insufficient!”

Mrs. Vlasse is presently associated with eight albums;
