Michael DERVAN, music critic, Dublin "The Irish Times" (November 28, 2009)

Frenchman Allain Gaussin’s Satori (1998), for solo clarinet, explored a development of melodic line that both investigated microtonal gaps and donned the musical equivalent of 10-league boots in a way that blended struggle and sprezzatura.

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, composer, 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. »
