   About Emily Bezar
Emily Bezar has been writing songs since she was a little girl living three blocks from the beach in southern California. When she wasn't bodysurfing and checking out the lifeguards, she was practicing away at the piano, forging her unique blend of classical, pop and jazz. Emily spent her college years studying opera and electronic music at the Oberlin Conservatory, one of the USA's best music schools. But soon after graduating she abandoned her operatic ambitions to explore the maze of sounds in her head and began to experiment in her own small home studio. After putting out three independent albums and paying her dues in San Francisco's rock and jazz clubs during the 90's, she followed her muse to southern France in 2001 and in late 2004 she released her 4th album, "Angels' Abacus", written in a house on a hill near the Mediterranean. Her 5th album "Exchange" reminds her more of her childhood in California than anything she's done yet (or at least she thinks so.....?!?).

Emily,

The way you described opera (UltraOpera), you will turn me into an opera fan in no time.  I mean, where else can a person legally see a sexy soprano frolicking on the floor with a baritones bodiless head?  Woohoo! 

Never lose that sense of humor!

Thank you for being my friend and for your superb music (but not for being on the wrong side of the country).  Best of health and success,

Dave
