"Arseniy Gusev is a composer of great lyrical gifts matched to a rich and uniquely personal harmonic language. Amidst these core elements one finds a daring freshness of dramatic gesture and timbre, as in "Crossroads" for violin and piano, and an embrace of microtonal inflection with hints of antiquity and exoticism, as in his "Five Madrigals" for ensemble, voices, dance, and film. In his parallel artistic life, he is also a decorated virtuoso pianist."
