Music Engine China Tour
Hollowed Knight in concert
June 2025
Concert tour with the renown Japanese indie game music ensemble Music Engine. bringing the music of Hollowed Knight to 9 cities in china with 10 performances.
**“ this Hollow Knight concert has turned out to be an unexpected triumph this year. The orchestra behind the performance is Japan’s talented young ensemble, Music Engine. As many know, Japan’s classical music scene—and its ACG (anime, comics, games) production culture—is already highly developed. What’s more, Hollow Knight has long been a beloved and successful title.
It’s also reassuring to know that the concert is conducted by Kent, who happens to be the composer of the music himself. That means he brings a balanced perspective—giving each part of the score its due. And he’s doing an outstanding job.
Even from a classical music standpoint, this concert more than holds its own.”** 西瓜皮 (Xīguā pí) Chinese classical music critic

Last minute call to conduct Theodora by G.F.Händel
5.4.2023
Reviews Canaria's premiere of Theodora by Händel
"Kent Moussault replaced at the last minute in the musical direction of the work. The young director showed mastery, temperance, and a good proceeding in the tempi and phrasing in baroque interpretation. The orchestra sounded with a very balanced and beautiful timbre, with great melancholy in the solo orchestral moments." Opera World
