Most of Mrs Vlasse's piano compositions are of intermediate and advanced level, and all are taught to Music Vision Studios’ students who perform them regularly in recitals. Indeed, these "Neo-Romantic" works have been so well received that many other teachers (including Antoinette Perry of USC) have asked for copies of the scores so they can include these pieces in their student's performances and competitions.
Her piano music has been extremely well received by critics, audiences and professional musicians, including 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 Mina Perry, Bryan Pezzone, Arsen Jamkotchian, Carlos Marquez, Joaquim Bonal Sarro and Harout Senekeremian. Further collaborations are currently planned with pianists Nadia Spachenko, Dr. Margery Whatley and Dr. Eugene Alcalay.
