Violin

William Huxtable

Violin

William joined WASO in 2023.

William Huxtable was born in Perth and began learning violin at age 3. His first teachers were Suzuki Violin Method teachers Amanda Dryborough and Jasmine Trebse. For his tertiary studies he was a student of Paul Wright at the University of Western Australia and Dr Robin Wilson at the Australian National Academy of Music (ANAM) where he completed the Professional Performance Program.

Whilst studying at ANAM he was a founding member of the Partridge String Quartet (PSQ). As part of PSQ he performed at the Musica Viva Festival in Sydney, the BANFF Centre for Arts and Creativity, the Port Fairy Spring Music Festival and the Canberra International Music Festival. PSQ were also winners of the ANAM Chamber Music Competition and the inaugural Queensland International Chamber Music Competition. In 2020 they were selected as part of Musica Viva’s FutureMakers Program.

In 2018 William toured with the Australian Chamber Orchestra (ACO) in a side-by-side collaboration as an ANAM musician. In 2019 he was part of the ‘Emerging Artists’ Program of the ACO where he toured and performed with ACO musicians and was mentored by violinist Glenn Christensen. In 2021 he also performed with the Australian World Orchestra for their 10th Anniversary Season.

William is a passionate violin teacher and co-founder of Perth Violin Studio alongside his sister and violinist Caitlin Gray where they are helping to start the next generation on their violin journeys.

William plays on a 2020 violin made by Robert König and Michael Betcher. It is modeled on the 1713 ‘Sancy’ Stradivarius once owned by Ivry Gitlis.

In his spare time William currently enjoys reading and listening to audiobooks or podcasts.
