Improvisations of the moment
Playing music that is improvised on the spot, BoomSquawk is the clarinet and piano duo of two life-long best friends: Cameron Hewes & Elliot Keeler. All of BoomSquawk’s music is improvised, guided with a constraint such as “a story in three parts,” a melodic jumping off point, or absolutely nothing at all and the two performers are simply responding to the now. Both performers have been playing music together and separately since early childhood. Although the two met in 5th grade, 20 years later, BoomSquawk is a new formalization of their storied performance past.
