Jef Neve (born 8 March 1977) is a Belgian jazz and classical music pianist and composer.

Life and career

[edit]

Neve was born in Turnhout, Belgium.[1] By the age of 14 he was composing music and playing in bands.[1] He studied jazz and classical music at the Lemmensinstituut in Leuven and graduated in 2000.[1][2] Not much later, he worked as a piano teacher and took the then 12-year-old Seppe Gebruers under his wing.[3]

Neve wrote the soundtrack for Felix Van Groeningen's Dagen Zonder Lief.[2] He also composed for the VRT series In Vlaamse Velden (In Flanders Fields).[1] The pianist played on Ludovic Bource's soundtrack for The Artist.[1]

The Guardian's reviewer of Neve's 2008 release Soul in a Picture commented that the pianist's playing contained "a very personal language, one which draws freely on classical music and – aided and abetted by Piet Verbist (bass) and Teun Verbruggen (drums) – has the impetus of jazz and rock".[4] Neve appeared on José James' 2010 album For All We Know.[2]
