I started playing piano at the age of 7. In my teenage years, I became intrigued by improvised music and began to increasingly devote my life towards this discipline by means of performing, composing, and teaching. In recent years, I have studied jazz piano in Amsterdam, Essen, and Stockholm. Immersing myself in these different music scenes and educational systems fundamentally shaped the way I approach music and teaching. My latest project Storm Before the Calm features musicians I met in each of these aforementioned cities in an attempt to merge my various influences into one coherent sound. In 2021, I concluded my academic journey with a master’s degree in music (M.Mus.) from the Royal College of Music in Stockholm. Since 2019, I have released a trio albumm Of Memories To Come, and have contributed to various releases as a side person such as Duy Luong’s band, ZOUY, and Renáta Hervoly’s RØNEE. Aside from jazz piano, I also have an interest in music production for other genres like hip-hop and electronic music. In the wake of a global pandemic and the subsequent standstill of life in the spring and summer of 2020, I found myself with plenty of time to explore my own sound as a producer. As a result of this process, I released my EP It Wasn’t Meant To Be under my producer alias j. xndr in 2020. Following, I collaborated with Icelandic singer Stína Ágústsdóttir and together we released an EP called TGRSS in 2022. In addition to playing, composing and producing music, I also teach piano at Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg and Musikschule der Stadt Monheim. https://www.jan-alexander.com/tgrss daily 0.75 2022-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62a643acd667412c7bf9f891/fadac554-95b9-44a6-b904-ffc09068649b/TGRSS+-+EP+Artwork+%28high+res%29.jpg TGRSS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62a643acd667412c7bf9f891/c5ecc396-7317-4396-8201-891129b65bc6/TGRSS+bnw.jpg TGRSS https://www.jan-alexander.com/videos daily 0.75 2022-06-13 https://www.jan-alexander.com/live daily 0.75 2026-03-02 https://www.jan-alexander.com/contact daily 0.75 2023-09-21 https://www.jan-alexander.com/as-sideman daily 0.75 2023-01-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62a643acd667412c7bf9f891/3233e8fa-0645-4351-8abb-96c4524c8c48/zouy.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62a643acd667412c7bf9f891/ef49af57-98dc-4f30-bc6b-5a5708eef671/Ronee.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62a643acd667412c7bf9f891/6f8f42a4-07ba-40cd-9d5a-45c25c9200e1/GREBE.jpg https://www.jan-alexander.com/impressum daily 0.75 2025-12-04 https://www.jan-alexander.com/reviews daily 0.75 2023-12-15
