Probably but the lines you hear in your mind still should be vocabulary in a certain style to be able to sound coherent to other musicians. So you're essentially still hearing "licks" in that sense. Maybe you got them another way, the result will be more or less the same.
The terrible memory is normal, count on only 5 to 10% of material that you practice seriously to stick. So: practicing 100 phrases with everything you have will net you about 7.5 phrases that you will actually use.

I have to play the waltz's I memorize everyday, or anything I'm gonna play note for note, or I'll surely forget it.
Sounds familiar!
why don't you ever play ballads
Nobody ever requests that during my live streams. I only play what's requested. So you know what to do now ;)
@@ChristiaanvanHemert i'm bad with the internet so i struggle with that stuff.
I'm a sax player but I found this helpful and reassuring!
Great to hear!
These words are gold! Thank a lot! 💛
You're welcome !
This video is just want I need now!
Nice!
Can you leave my car out of this 🙏
Too late!
is it possible to learn improvisation without learning licks? just connecting what you hear in your mind with your skills on the instrument?

@@ChristiaanvanHemert it's just that I have a terrible memory. so maybe getting the broader concepts and feel, paired witb technique will be easier

@@ChristiaanvanHemert it just doesn't seem very efficient to me
Talk to any really good playing jazz musician, not just silly UA-cam teachers, and most will tell you about the same!
