| “ | ... Kechley (b. 1947) is an omnivore, a composer with a roving and curious ear, not content to settle into one single style or idiom. From the tense rigor of Design and Construction to the passionate delicacy of Available Light, his music displays a wide range of colors, harmonies and ways of treating both horizontal and vertical musical space. That being said, his works are united by several qualities, chiefly his great interest in and use of motoric rhythms, and his highly detailed deployment of timbre. | ” |
iTunes customer review
| “ | Kechley seems to be bypassing the notions of what percussion could be to focus on what percussion is: it’s an impact, a duration, a decay, an anticipation, a presence, an absence, an exertion, an action. … Colliding Objects is separated into five sections, predominantly focused on percussion and rhythm but bleeding outward to explore melody and melodic instruments. What becomes beautifully apparent in the collection’s latter sections is Kechley’s distinctive approach to melody; while rhythm always maintains central focus via its dramatic turns of pace and duration, melody is threaded gorgeously through each beat, with his expert handling of the highs and lows turning those thuds and long instrumental sighs into a captivating assortment of steps and slopes. | ” |
Jack Chuter, www.attnmagazine.co.uk
| “ | Award-winning composer David Kechley mines the intimate in order to find the dramatic, eschewing volume and mass in favor of tension and melodic invention of the works on this disc. This extends to the instrumentation, which includes creative percussion such as circular saw blades and pine planks cut to different lengths in "Design and Construction" or the pitched gongs, crotales, woodblocks, and exotic bells of the title track. | ” |
