Music Director Laureate Marin Alsop reunites with a favorite composer, Kevin Puts, to present his dazzling concerto for the improvising/vocalizing/ barn-burning/genre-crossing talents of the Grammy Award-winning string trio Time for Three. Strauss' symphonic portrait of the rakish Don Juan and Ravel's technicolor ballet scenes show off every imaginable shading of orchestral sound, while the fiery Symphony No. 59 from Haydn has the "father of the symphony" demanding total commitment and precision from his orchestral arsenal.

Musicians Nick Kendall and Charles Yang, who both double on violin and vocals, alongside Ranaan Meyer, who accompanies on voice and double bass, are better known as Time for Three, an Emmy and Grammy-Award winning chamber pop trio with a foot in the classical world and the other squarely in the field of contemporary folk. Renowned for bravura concerts at spaces including Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center and The Royal Albert Hall, the ensemble have worked closely with a diverse and famous roster of artists and composers, including Ben Folds, Branford Marsalis, Joshua Bell, Chris Brubeck, and Pulitzer Prize-winners Jennifer Higdon and William Bolcom.
This Americana-friendly combo are equally at home performing movie soundtracks, playing new classics by composer Kevin Puts for the acclaimed Deutsche Grammophon label, or releasing catchy indie rock cuts like their breakout radio hit Vertigo.
"...this remarkable group is not to be missed... truly, no one else is like Time for Three." – The Strad
