while respecting the chord progression
This is the overall pattern of chords within which the jazz musician improvises.
In other word, instead of reading note-by-note, the musician will learn to improvise on the basis of chord arpeggios and runs based on the chords in the progression.

by keeping the same (chord) structure
grille can mean:
- the overall pattern of the structure, or
- the chord structure

On second thoughts, there is an opposition between \"s\'échapper de la partition\" and \"en conservant la grille\". So the possible turns of phrase would be:
- while keeping to the same structure
- while adhering to the same structure
(where \"structure\" is the compositional structure)
or:
- while keeping the same chord structure
- while keeping to the same chord structure
- while adhering to the same chord structure
--------------------------------------------------

or (borrowing a little from Willian Stein\'s suggestion):
- while following the same chord progression
(I had initially thought of \"chord progression\" as an alternative, but I left it out)
- the overall pattern of the structure, or
- the chord structure

an idea
as it is modern music I take it to mean more "research type" music and i am not sure that chords are the key to this...the rane idea is almost a sort of canvass from which to escape and come back to and escape again...
