    I do both, I mean, to test a concept you need to conceptualise it first. There was a thread a while back about whether Theory can help you develop good lines.
    I honestly don't know how you can develop anything in Jazz without some theory being the precedent to it. That's if you want to really own what you play, and explore an original style/voice. Otherwise, you'd be just borrowing the theoretical work other people have done if you're just into copping your lines from others.

    Which is why I like inventing my own concepts, but each time I do, the genesis for an idea came from another existing idea you hear or read about, then you explore it until it morphs into your own thing. It's where the fun is for me.
