Ewan is a prominent young oboist building a career in the UK.

In 2020 Ewan won the woodwind final of BBC Young Musician, advancing to the Grand Final, and performing Navarro’s “Legacy” concerto with the BBC Philharmonic. Since the competition he has performed as a soloist in recitals and concertos around the UK.

He has been selected as a Tillett Debut Scheme Artist and Countess of Munster Trust Recital Scheme Artist, and as such will continue performing regular recitals in the coming years.

As a freelancer, he has had the privilege of playing principal oboe with the RPO, Aurora Orchestra, and Britten Sinfonia. Ewan did his undergraduate at St. Hilda’s College, Oxford, and his postgraduate at RAM, receiving firsts in both degrees.

He has studied primarily with Melanie Ragge, while also receiving lessons from Christopher Cowie and Patrick Flanaghan. Ewan is a Howarth Artist, and plays on a Howarth XM oboe, which he was kindly aided in buying by the Gerald Finzi Trust.
