They are an inspiration. Such sympatico! Such back-and-forth! Individually they are marvelous musicians—we’ve known that, but together they play 4-handed stride as it’s never been done. Brava, bravo!” – Dick Hyman Pioneers in the use of four-hands piano in jazz, Stephanie Trick and Paolo Alderighi have earned widespread success with their arrangements of classics from the stride piano, ragtime, and boogie woogie traditions, as well as from the Swing Era. In recent projects, they have focused on the repertoire of the Golden Age of Broadway and Hollywood, as the songs written for the musicals of the stage and screen represent a high point of creative ferment in American popular music. Blending impeccable technique with mature musicality, the piano duo has performed in a variety of venues across the United States, Europe, Japan, Israel, and Australia (including the Gilmore Keyboard Festival, Jazz at Filoli, the Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix, the Kobe Jazz Street Festival in Japan, the London Jazz Festival, the Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival, the Ascona Jazz Festival in Switzerland, the Silkeborg Riverboat Jazz Festival in Denmark, the Bohém Ragtime & Jazz Festival in Hungary, the Milan Conservatory, Teatro Dal Verme Milano, Jazzland in Vienna, and the Jazz Bistro in Toronto), winning the acclaim of critics and fans alike. Stephanie Trick (from St. Louis), a leading exponent of stride piano, and Paolo Alderighi (from Milan), one of Italy’s foremost jazz pianists, met at a piano festival in Switzerland in 2008. Soon after, they started to collaborate on a four-hands piano project and have recorded seven albums together. Trick and Alderighi explored the formula of four-hands duets on one piano, rarely used in jazz, in their first two albums, Two for One (2012) and Sentimental Journey (2014) (the latter album was awarded the Prix Piano by the Hot Club of France). Their partnership continued with Double Trio Live 2015 and Double Trio Always (2016), recorded in the piano trio setting, but with two pianists instead of one. In 2018, they released their first album on two pianos, Broadway and More. This was followed by the 2020 double album, I Love Erroll, I Love James P., featuring compositions of two legendary figures of jazz piano, Erroll Garner and James P. Johnson. In 2025, they released their second album on two pianos, Classic Jazz on Two Pianos, produced in collaboration with Yamaha Music Europe. Trick and Alderighi’s touring schedule includes performances in schools and universities, as they believe in the importance of educational outreach. Their programs range from lectures and concert lessons to master classes for students of all ages, with a focus on various topics, such as “A Short History of the Piano,” “Intersections of Jazz and Classical Music,” “Early American Popular Music and the Birth of Jazz,” “Women in Ragtime and Jazz,” “Musical Improvisation,” “Blues and Boogie Woogie,” “Ragtime and Stride Piano,” and “How to Appreciate Jazz.” Both Stephanie Trick and Paolo Alderighi have a background in classical piano. Trick graduated cum laude from the University of Chicago with a Bachelor of Arts in Music. Alderighi has a degree in Piano Performance from the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan, Italy, and also graduated cum laude from Bocconi University in Management of Arts, Culture and Communication. Since 2008, he has been teaching a course at Bocconi entitled “Critical Approaches to the Arts - Music and Society.” They have worked with a variety of institutions, including the following: the Eastman School of Music, the University of Mississippi, the Colburn School (Los Angeles), the University of California, Santa Barbara, Syracuse University (New York), Alfred University (New York), the San Diego School of Creative and Performing Arts, Crawford High School (San Diego), Garfield High School (Washington), Parkway Central High School (Missouri), Walton High School (New York), Regional Center for the Arts (Connecticut), Tokyo Nihon University, the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, Conservatorio di Brescia, Bocconi University (Milan), and others. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/st-louis/stephanie-trick-and-paolo-alderighi-a-two-piano-concert/200028815666620 - **Event Categories**: entertainment, music, festivals, concerts, workshops, jazz, art, performances, live-music, theatre - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 6 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: St. Louis - **state**: MO - **country**: United States - **location**: Blue Strawberry STL - **lat**: 38.6427 - **long**: -90.24965 - **full address**: Blue Strawberry STL, 364 N Boyle Ave, St Louis, MO 63108-2941, United States, St. Louis ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Stephanie Trick & Paolo Alderighi - A Two-Piano Concert - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/50be04d92a4585a560bae1e12a525621716363325abada80d801007dcd4878a0-rimg-w1200-h675-dc262021-gmir?v=1761324548 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Stephanie Trick & Paolo Alderighi - A Two-Piano Concert being held? - **A:** Stephanie Trick & Paolo Alderighi - A Two-Piano Concert takes place on Sun, 26 Oct, 2025 at 07:00 pm to Sun, 26 Oct, 2025 at 07:00 pm at Blue Strawberry STL, 364 N Boyle Ave, St Louis, MO 63108-2941, United States, St. Louis. - **Q**: Who is organizing Stephanie Trick & Paolo Alderighi - A Two-Piano Concert? - **A:** Stephanie Trick & Paolo Alderighi - A Two-Piano Concert is organized by Blue Strawberry STL. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
