GRAMMY®-winner Danaë Xanthe Vlasse is a half-French, half-Greek composer living in Los Angeles since 2005. Her music encompasses art song, chamber music, works for solo piano, along with choral and orchestral works. Mrs. Vlasse holds honors from many competitions along with the GRAMMYS®. Her music has been performed by internationally-acclaimed singers, instrumentalists, chamber ensembles, and choirs, and has been featured on national television through PBS’ “Front and Center” broadcast. Ballet dancers and figure-skaters have choreographed to Mrs. Vlasse’s music because crossing creative disciplines is a personal passion for the composer.
She has released 6 albums of original music. Her most recent release is MYTHOLOGIES II, which was recorded with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and offers orchestral tone poems highlighting sopranos Sangeeta Kaur and Hila Plitmann, tenor Omar Najmi, and pianist Robert Thies, as they embody iconic figures from Greek mythology.

a level of musical beauty unlikely to have been touched thus far...
...unquestionably magnificent."

Loved by Audiences and Performers;
"I love Danae's piano music for its exuberance, honesty, emotional appeal, as well as unabashedly and beautifully Romantic feeling! Her musical language takes me back to the Golden Age of the Piano. On a technical note, I find her works very pianistic and sympathetic to the hand. I look forward to a long collaboration with this highly gifted young composer/pianist." ~ Dr. Eugene Alcalay, pianist

"Danae 's music touches your soul. In all of her works which I've performed there is magnetic power, expressiveness and the ability to capture audiences' close attention. Her simple yet well developed melodies immediately bring a palette of colors which helps the performer to create variety of moods."

What Music Critics are Saying:
"The music of Danaë Vlasse is incredibly moving, beautiful through and through.
Her work is both introspective and bold, as she takes her listener on a deeply heartfelt journey. Her compositional voice positions her as one of today's outstanding composers."
~ Lolita Ritmanis, Emmy-Award-winning composer

"Some artists try to scale their way to the top of the music industry by personal flamboyance (or inscrutability). Others work the business like hardened politicians and hope that money and fame will redeem whatever compromises are made along the way. But a very few can do it by a golden amalgamation of originality, musicianship and talent. Danae Vlasse is such an artist."
Lily Clark - Marquix Global Network

"Stunningly perfect; unbridled yet controlled, with
astonishing emotion." - Brian Carmody, composer

"Each time we listened we were taken to a world where commercial trappings didn't have to exist and where ART for the sake of art could not only survive, it could thrive!"
