Duo Pianistico - Stephanie Trick & Paolo Alderighi

With their highly virtuosic magic keyboard show, pianists Stephanie Trick and Paolo Alderighi play before enthusiastic audiences in many countries and continents. They are both classically trained, and since 2011 they have been performing as «Duo Pianistico», playing their own sophisticated, intricate and rousing arrangements of tunes from the repertoire of Classic Jazz: Ragtime, Harlem Stride, Boogie Woogie, Blues, Swing and the «Great American Songbook». Stephanie Trick, who hails from St. Louis, is considered to be the ‘rising star’ of Harlem Stride piano as it was made famous by James P. Johnson in the 1920s. Paolo Alderighi, who grew up in Milan, names Erroll Garner as a major inspiration. It is truly fascinating to witness the two musicians, who are now husband and wife, playing live and to see and hear their stupendous technique, boundless joy of playing and humorous presentation style all rolled into one. While playing they will keep changing roles at the piano, and so the blend of their diverse stylistic backgrounds will make a concert by the «Duo Pianistico» a dazzling, unforgettable musical experience. We're so looking forward to it!
