Michel PASSELERGUE, poet, music critic, "La Lettre du Musicien" (December 2003)

« Alloy of sound worlds, an musical elsewhere quest, secret alchemy of time: music by Allain Gaussin opens unsuspected horizon. »

Philippe LEROUX, compoer, Arcane (May 1995)

« I sincerely think that it is one of the best pieces written for piano of the last 20 years, because of the innovating nature of its ideas. Very very beautiful. »

Harry HALBREICH, musicologue, "Crescendo" (May 1995)

« Allain Gaussin is a visionary fond of dream and fantastic, a very talented poet. His music is sensual and shimmering, sometimes powerful up to an exalting violence, but never degenerates in roughness... Irisation-rituel is indisputably an important page of French orchestral music of our time, and Arcane is one of the few veritably significant scores that have enriched the pianistic repertoire. Jay Gottlieb is also excellent in performing it. »

Michel THION, musicologist, "Crescendo" (May 1995)

« This microtonal and evolutionnary composer writes a staggering energetic music. A burning breath goes through his music, in which aerial figurines dance and multiple arborescence blossom. »
