Awesome performance from Stephanie Trick ! First time I've heard her play; and she is dynamite !! She has a natural rhythm; love the way she keeps time with her left foot.
I think it's safe to say that Steph' truly is the queen of stride. No one that I've come across comes even close. A delight to watch and listen to. Long may she reign.
That is quite sweet, and she is very good... but Hazel Scott blows her away. its no offense to Stephanie cause she is great. But Hazel is queen, like Art Tatum or Fats Waller is king. Put this recording at 1.15x though and she really does start sounding like the greats
It is great to hear someone keeping this kind of playing alive. The classical pianists of Europe, when they came to America to play, would go to Harlem to hear Fats Waller and sit in awe. The people that played this stuff where big men with huge hands and were brimming with energy. It is surprising to hear her play it so well. Of course, she is brimming with energy. And her smile! OMG. What an amazing woman.
Actually, her hands are quite large, and the fingers are very long for her height - you can see it better in other videos. Of course, you need much more than just large hands to play like that (though it helps), and she certainly has got it - she is phenomenal!
It's about style. Ms Trick has a percussive, staccato style. She is not emulating earlier pianists. And she is keeping alive a great art form which is to be applauded
The cleanest tightest STRIDE I’ve ever heard. Scroll to the middle of the song after the intro. Her expression is well recognized. She can really cook the keys.😊🎉
Really genius. The best version of this song anywhere has ever played. This music is really dancing and urgently call for an extension in the Stride style.
Stephanie Trick is so tuned-in to the era in which she has both captured and mastered playing, that one keeps waiting to hear the distinctive sound of a century-old H.M.V. 78 rpm record whirring in the background, but it never occurs, and that's because she's ALIVE! Bravo! - j q t -
This is the first song I ever heard Stephanie play, probably about 10 years ago, and I have followed her career ever since. Still love this rendition of this great old song.
Absolutely outstanding. Just incredible playing. Where she speeds up about two minutes into the number, is unbelievable. As an oldie, this gives me hope for the future.
Just had my faith restored that maybe there's hope for great music yet, if this talented young lady is anything to go by. Truly a God given gift, just beautiful!
God-given? Come on give credit where credit is due. This beautiful young woman worked and worked and worked to develop this degree of excellence. Don't sell her short by saying it was a gift. It was a lot of tenacity, hard work and long hours on her part.
+BV Bill I play the piano at the most modest level possible, and watching Stephanie brings tears to my eyes, from admiration and a bit of regret that I didn't practice more as a kid.
+heartpursuer Right on! She's incredible. I detest the thumbs down option. If they don't like it they should turn it off and stop behaving as if anyone cares what they dislike . Only children and fatuous trolls use it.
+BV Bill Maybe TH-cam could start requiring the down-arrow crowd to post something creative they've done, so we can all sit in judgment. I'm joking. We both know they haven't done anything creative. By the way, it looks like the number of the dreaded arrows dropped by one. How is that possible?
Imagine just being able to stroll into a pub and sit down at the piano and knocking _this_ out - fantastic!! One of my all time favourite songs arranged beautifully as an instrumental rendition. 👍👍👍
Stéphanie i have a lot of your piano performances, i appréciate your discretion, simplicity, distinction, you show humility, always smile with a crazy talent, i am sur you are a good person in life
What a mood changer and creator of listening pleasure Ms. Trick creates, especially when she shares the piano bench with Mr. Alderighi, or looks across the pianos at the likes of the great Dick Hyman! If, after reading some of the ridiculous analytic comments and comparisons to long gone jazz greats, we think she cares and is not enjoying every second of what she's doing, watch her facial expressions and her inability to keep her feet still. Nothing but superb piano playing.
James Turner Maybe if she would just keep her feet still she could rechannel and move her lips in a remarkably humorous, chatty and carefree manner while playing full tilt, just like ol Fats could...but don't hold your breath waiting for that now.
Phil Goodwin tapping your feet while playing is just an expression of how much you enjoy what you're doing, how much you feel the music. I wouldn't want her to change anything she does; Especially since, about 90% of the time, I'm just listening to her play, not watching the videos.
charles cap That is true, but I don't have a piano or even a keyboard I can easily gain access to. I try to brush up a bit every time I visit home haha
As I (hear it) & see it , the hardest thing for “Stephanie Trick” isn’t in mastering “Stride” piano. But it’s the relegation of meticulously crafting a complementary list of piano favourites. That will entertain our appetite for beautiful music played by someone spent on accentuating (the bed-jesus). Out of what already seems like flawless, and popular musical great’s.?!!!
Starting at 1:50, I could imagine a woman singing the lyrics of the original song, but at a really cheerful, faster paced tone. ♫ After you've gone And left me crying After you've gone There's no denying You'll feel blue You'll feel sad You'll miss the only pal you ever had There'll come a time, now don't forget it There'll come a time when you'll regret it Oh babe, think what you're doing You know my love for you will drive me to ruin After you've gone, after you've gone away ♪ Singing to match the speed, and highs and ends of the song's lyrics, to the notes of the piano, like some kind of jazz singer is too fun >_>
This is actually really well played. I think I heard it first time on some video game on nintendo way back. Truly shows that good music does not care about the medium.
Terry Lynn - No video games when I first heard this in 1948. It was on 78 rpm gramophone record from 1935. (you may, at this point, wonder what on earth I'm talking about !) Played by 'dance bands' in those days, it was a very popular song and it still pops up today, played in jazz groups, etc. as a 'standard'.
Everyone checkout Jane Vasey -with The Downchild Blues Band (and Peter Appleyard) she could play boogie woogie with the best. Stephanie Trick is wonderful, keeping an old style alive and playing so damn well.
I have had the biggest crush on Stephanie Trick since discovering her videos when I was a teenage boy. Breathtakingly beautiful and tears that piano to fucking shreds. Get it, get it, get it, GET IT, baby girl! MOP MOP MOP MOP A VODY OH DO!!! 😊❤ oh MERCY baby, I aint NEVER hearda such WALKIN! one never knows, do one...? Stephanie Trick is the Goddess of Stride ❤
I’m a new follower of Stephanie (2023) this lady is phenomenal !!

okay... 1.15x was being to harsh. She really does get into groove halfway through. Maybe 1.1x.
I think Jimin Park does this piece a bit better.
Queen if stride would be Judy Carmichael
What an absolute treasure Stephanie Trick is to the world of stride piano playing. A style of jazz piano we don't tend to hear much these days.
In my (European) country we call this left hand technique "throw bass" or similar. Is that what stride is?
@Rich Irvine Yes.
❤Steph is Phenomenal. Wish I could see her play in person. I am from Singapore turning 81 soon. I can’t stop listening to her play.
She does these great old classic tunes fantastic. Just the way they were meant to be played. She is amazing!

@@byroncjohnston1 everything she has is from God. Not only the talent, but also the strong will and endurance to practice!
Just wonderful! Especially to see/hear a young person playing the old favorites & so well! Keep going with it!
Don't you just love this sweet talented amazing artist? She makes the world a better place.
Per essere una PIANISTA JAZZ, di Alto Livello HA UNO SWING SPLENDIDO !! Una agililita' Geniale, UN GRANDE TALENTO UNICO !! BRAVISSIMA !!!
I just shake head and wonder about the state of mind of those five people who voted this video down. Stephanie is amazing.

They don't recognize real music when they hear it. They have been brainwashed into thinking the trash that's played today is music!
I'am out of words... what can I say super performance, super piano, super Stephany!! Thanks for all the joy you give to me with your music I
😮
Isn't she just wonderful?.....WOW!
I love this music. She makes it look so easy. Why couldn’t I play like that. She is brilliant, no music. Bravo.
Her rhythm is rock solid.
Vélocité, rythme, virtuosité,toucher précis et magnifique sonorité.Cette jeune personne est très douée.
Bon sang!! quelle maîtrise et quel sens de rythme!! Jusqu'où cette petite pourra-t-elle donc aller???
Si les arrangements sont d'elle, c'est vraiment à se taper le c...par terre!!!!
GREAT ... Stephanie is Number One ..!!!!
Imagine if she had a third hand! Oh my, that left hand...compositions fantastic. Thx. Stephanie.
Imagine just being able to stroll into a pub and sit down at the piano and knocking _this_ out - fantastic!! One of my all time favourite songs arranged beautifully as an instrumental rendition. 👍👍👍
I could not agree more!!
I find one great thing about music....,its all subject to our own flair! Our own interpretation. ...thats what i very much love about it
J’aime le jazz années 25 30, le piano et le sourire de Stéphanie trick ainsi que son grand talent
This was lovely thank you for the post. Love this style of playing. That is what I like to call TICKLE THE IVORIES!!!! BRAVO!
Like a beautiful machine.. soft touch then full steam.. BRAVO.
great start----then i really perked up to hear the up tempo. wonderful. so good to hear good piano and see good technique. really enjoyed!
I just can't believe what she does - incredible !
Masterful Syncopation. - j q t -

I would swap 10 pop concert tickets for just a couple of hours at a live performance of this young lady..
Look out, World, she's coming!! Fantastic!
About as good as it gets. Great playing from Stephanie!
Quite wonderful....hope she's still playing...somewhere
Amazing, just great. Thank you.
Also in 2020 Stephanie Trick amazes people with her style and groove :)
She's the Queen, tellin' the King what to do.
Very nice! I want to listen to music in Japan!
Good Lord, how beautiful!!!! Love you guys!!
Wow! fabulous, what a surprise
semplicemente assurdo!!!!!grande stephanie!!!!!grandiosa!!!!! MAESTRO!
MINE IS 2000'TH LIKE! GREETINGS FROM PRISTHINE!!!
Fabulous! A very talented young woman!
SPLENDID !!!!!!
after she's gone, she'll leave me crying....
Gives me chills when she goes into the stride.
SUPERB!!
Beautiful performance! I miss playing this kind of music, but after 6 years of not practicing I'm afraid my fingers are too weak.
charles cap That is true, but I don't have a piano or even a keyboard I can easily gain access to. I try to brush up a bit every time I visit home haha
How about an electric 88-key piano, if you can afford it. Certainly better than nothing.
Couldn’t you slowly, patiently build up your strength and skills again. Shame to waste all you achieved in the past. Go for it!
Merveilleuse pianiste jazz classique années 25 30 avec un beau sourire en plus
Scroll to 1:55 One of the best arrangements of 'After You've Gone' ever! Smokin'! I hope she performs it at the Ragtime Festival in Sacramento.
Wow!!!! I listened to you play this piece with different artist and you have now brought your comp.to the level that all players will be striving for.

♫ After you've gone
And left me crying
After you've gone
There's no denying
You'll feel blue
You'll feel sad
You'll miss the only pal you ever had
There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
Oh babe, think what you're doing
You know my love for you will drive me to ruin
After you've gone, after you've gone away ♪
Singing to match the speed, and highs and ends of the song's lyrics, to the notes of the piano, like some kind of jazz singer is too fun >_>

She made me know how stride is cool! At the same time I became a fan of her
So beautiful and perfect !
Life is just not fair. This lady was born with a bushel of talent, and I only get a thimble-full.
But they get to share their talent with the rest of us which kind of compensates. And yes she is talented, no doubt about that
I would trade a months worth of toilet paper for a thimble full of talent.
From A WWII Trumpeter - She's My Number One Choice.
What a great pianist
she plays it simply perfect, besides that she is just a lovely girl, I love her and I love this kind of music too!!
Amazing ♥️ Unbeliveble...TOP
one a great jazz standards from the early 20th centuries..it is nice to hear the original verses being included more these days.
