Jef Neve was born in Belgium on March 8th, 1977. He studied at the Lemmensinstituut in Louvain, and took master classes by Jozef De Beenhouwer, Guy de Mey, Brad Mehldau, Martial Solal, Lew Tabackin, Toots Thielemans, Billy Hart, Bill Carothers, Kenny Werner and Bruce Barth.
In 2000 Jef graduated with Master of Music degrees in both jazz and classical piano, with great distinction. In 2001 he specialized in Chamber Music and he was rewarded ‘cum laude’.

Next to his musical education, Jef started to play in local bands at the age of fourteen. During that period he composed a wide variety of pieces for the most divergent ensembles (from piano solo to symphonic orchestra). From age seventeen to twenty he played with the popular funk band Mr. Zebedee, immediately his first contact with jazz and blues.
As freelance pianist Jef performed with various jazz bands, classical ensembles, popbands (f.ex. Get Ready, the famous Belgian boys band), theatre productions, studio sessions, to solo performances with the Flemish Philharmonic Orchestra (conducted by Michel Tilkin). As jazz musician he worked with Dré Pallemaerts, Paolo Fresu, Lindsey Horner, etc… In 2002 he worked for a year as a pianist and composer for the Contemporary Dance Company ‘Dathe’ in London.


“Blue Saga” (Contour, 2003), the first album of the Jef Neve Trio, was immediately a bestseller.
