Time for Three (Tf3) is a non-traditional trio of musicians who began playing together while they were students at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. At first, violinists Zachary De Pue and Nicolas Kendall, and bassist Ranaan Meyer, played for fun. Sharing their mutual love for music, they began experimenting with different genres of music. Each of these classically trained string musicians comes from a different musical background, but together through experimentation they began to blend their unique styles of country/western and bluegrass with jazz and improvisation to form Time for Three. In this 2008 program, these classically trained string players perform an eclectic mix of bluegrass, Hungarian gypsy, jazz, country-western fiddling, classical, and improvisatory music. During the program, Time for Three performs music from Brahms to the Beatles and beyond and demonstrates how engaging music of all genres can be when played with spontaneity, enthusiasm, and technical virtuosity.
