Ewing studied law at Marischal College in Aberdeen. In 1855, he joined the army, rising to the rank of lieutenant colonel, and receiving a medal for the campaign in China in 1869. His true love was music, though, which he studied in Heidelberg, Germany. A member of the Harmonic Choir in Aberdeen, he brought his newly written tune “Ewing” to practice one night, and that choir was the first to ever sing it.
