Introduction : The Jazz Line Lab — your space dedicated to jazz lines, improvisation, playing in all 12 keys, and the harmonic analysis of licks.
✨ Jazz is a language — one we learn by immersing ourselves in it, speaking it, and absorbing the lines of the great masters. This Jazz Line Lab is where I share that journey with you: step by step, line by line, sound by sound. A long path, a fascinating one — and always a beautiful one. In this space I bring together everything that forms the core of my jazz practice: transcription, analysis, bowings, fingerings, articulation, sound, rhythm, and the study of each lick in all 12 keys. It’s a living library that grows with every lesson, every discovery, every new phrase. My approach is simple and honest: I learn from the masters — by listening deeply on YouTube and Spotify, by attending concerts, and by transcribing the solos that truly speak to me. From each transcription, I extract the most powerful lines, internalise them, and rebuild them on the violin through technique, clarity and musical intention. In this process I help you with the same tools I rely on myself: natural bowings, clean fingerings, left- and right-hand balance, expressive timing, and a step-by-step approach that makes even the most complex lick accessible. This is the essence of the Jazz Line Lab. A place where technique and imagination meet the freedom of improvisation. 🎻 About Me As a first violin/second soloist at Opera Ballet Vlaanderen with a deep and lifelong passion for jazz, my musical path flows naturally between two worlds: the refinement of classical tradition and the freedom of improvisation. In 2024 I completed my Bachelor in Jazz Violin, and I continue my studies with Eva Slongo and Tim Kliphuis — two violinists whose openness and vision inspire me profoundly. Through their academies I have connected with many of today’s active jazz violinists, learning from every exchange. My classical and jazz background in harmony — one of my favourite subjects ever — allows me to analyse and notate each solo with precision: bowings, fingerings, articulations and the colours that are specific to the violin.
