“Arsenii Moon is highly gifted. He is an extraordinary virtuoso capable of capturing the listener's attention with a fascinating and breathtaking story. He is equally at home with the deepest pages of Bach as well the transcendental etudes of Liszt and mazurkas of Chopin.” ©Sergei Babayan

“Arsenijeva najveća snaga je njegova briljantna i fina tehnika, puna nijansi, u kombinaciji s aristokratskom elegancijom. Mlada glazbenica već ima vrlo osobni stil i zna kako šarmirati i osvojiti publiku.” ©Muzlife magazin
“Arsenii Moon je vrlo nadaren. On je izvanredan virtuoz sposoban zaokupiti pažnju slušatelja fascinantnom pričom koja oduzima dah. Podjednako mu se sviđaju najdublje stranice Bacha kao i transcendentalne Lisztove etide i Chopinove mazurke.” ©Sergej Babajan
