NEW CD RELEASED : "River in the Sun" : Mimi Dye & TOPAZ

Mimi Dye —  Director

TOPAZ is a chamber ensemble committed to using the arts to build community spirit and awareness through benefit concerts for worthy organizations, in-the-school music programs for young people, and performances at Stanford Hospital and other institutions dedicated to healing and service.

TOPAZ is a world-class performing ensemble that explores the relationships between the various music genres of classical, jazz, and world music, and the role of improvisation in music making, breaking down barriers that artificially divide the vast realm of music into isolated segments. TOPAZ is committed to composing, commissioning, and performing new works.

TOPAZ believes in the role of the arts in our modern world as a living force for beauty, healing, and community service. TOPAZ is dedicated to empowering women in the arts as performers, educators, composers, and innovative leaders.
