Golyshev the composer is notable for his only surviving composition, a string trio. This piece, subtitled Zwölftondauer-Komplexe (twelve-tone-duration complex), was published in 1925 in Berlin, but was possibly written as early as 1914. It makes use of various 12-note and 12-duration complexes, making it one of the earliest pieces of music composed using a variant of twelve-tone technique, and predating Olivier Messiaen's work. There are five movements, four provided with titles referencing their dynamics.
1 - Mezzo-forte (Largo)
2 - Fortissimo (Allegro)
3 - Piano (Andante)
4 - Pianissimo (Allegretto)
5 - Adagio (Adagio)
