Danaë Xanthe Vlasse's "Trilogies" is a captivating collection of twelve original piano solos, released on February 11, 2017, under her independent label. This album showcases Vlasse's mastery of the classical piano and her ability to blend the romantic traditions of the 19th century with contemporary neoclassical sensibilities. Each piece is meticulously composed and performed, offering a rich and immersive experience that spans a total of 64 minutes.
The album is divided into three distinct sections, each containing four pieces: Fantaisies, Nocturnes, and Préludes. The Fantaisies are characterized by their dramatic and expressive nature, with titles like "Nuit Sans Sommeil" (Night Without Sleep) and "Schwanengesang" (Swansong) hinting at the depth and intensity of the compositions.

The Préludes serve as a prelude to the rest of the album, offering a taste of the diverse styles and moods that await.
