Biography
Trick is the daughter of late I/T professional Allen Trick (1952-2012) and Filipina-American nurse Alina (Marcilla) Trick of St. Louis.[4] Stephanie began playing piano at the age of five.[5] Her interest outside classical music began at the age of ten, when her piano teacher introduced her to ragtime.[6] She received her BA degree in music with honors from the University of Chicago in 2009.[5] Trick demonstrates piano performance and composition styles of stride, ragtime and jazz piano from the 1900s to the 1940s.[7] She emphasizes jazz standards, stride and boogie-woogie tunes with an accent on her specialty of Harlem stride.[8][9] Trick and her husband, pianist Paolo Alderighi, reside in both St. Louis and Milan, Italy, his home town.
