Her father was an academic and both her parents were amateur musicians. As a child she began playing a 3\/4 size cello given to her by a family friend and shortly thereafter began formal studies in Perth with Jill Cole, a cellist with the West Australian Symphony Orchestra. In 1978 her father’s work took the family to London for a year where she studied at the Royal College of Music with Eileen Croxford.[1] After graduating from high school in Perth, she attended the University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music where she was a student of Gabor Rejto and received her Bachelor of Music in cello performance in 1985.[2][3]Hewgill continued her studies at the Aspen Music Festival and the Music Academy of the West[4] and had private tuition from Mstislav Rostropovich and William Pleeth. In 1988 after touring Europe with I Solisti Veneti, she returned to her native Australia, initially as a cellist with the Australian Chamber Orchestra. She joined the Sydney Symphony Orchestra in 1989 and in 1990 became the orchestra’s Principal Cellist.[1][5] That same year she became a founding member of the Novalis Quartet, a string quartet which specialised in the music of the Romantic era.[6][7]She had a 14-month forced career hiatus when she fell outside the Sydney Opera House in 2001 while carrying her cello, a 1729 Carlo Tononi. The cello was unscathed, but all the bones in one wrist were crushed. After months of surgery and rehabilitation, Hewgill returned to the concert stage as a soloist in November 2002 with a performance of Brahms’ Double Concerto with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.[8][9] In addition to her orchestral and chamber work, she has served as an adjudicator for the inaugural Australian Cello Awards and has given masterclasses at the Australian National Academy of Music.[10][11]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Hewgill is married to a cinematographer.
