Trained at the world’s top conservatories, TAKE3 has expanded their repertoire from Bach and Beethoven to Leonard Cohen, Bieber and The Beach Boys.
This dynamic and charismatic threesome leaves their indelible mark on captivated crowds around the country performing their arrangements of Christmas favorites, top pop hits, Oldies, Americana, and their signature classical mashups – and everything in between including classical favorites. Joseph Rosato, Hazleton, said “I put the evening’s musical selections into two categories – awesome and spectacular” and LocalNews1.org “TAKE3 creates some of the most exciting and refreshing pop/rock/classical fusion music anywhere in the world.”
TAKE3 makes it their mission to impart their love, passion and joy in music making to all who hear them, using their artistic ability as a conduit for musical storytelling.
Seamlessly merging hits from Elvis and the Beatles to Bach and Beethoven, TAKE3 lives at the intersection where pop, rock and classical fusion collide. Described by audience goers as a mini–Trans Siberian Orchestra Christmas experience, TAKE3 is nothing short of exhilarating and has electrified audiences at venues and performing arts centers throughout the U.S.
Known for their infectious and down-to-earth personalities on stage, the trio performs with virtuosic instrumental cross-genre “chops”.
ARCA is proud to be welcoming them back to Foxburg to perform for both its enthusiastic classical and popular music audiences an unforgettable holiday program to usher in the Christmas holiday – a night of thrilling entertainment for the whole family.
In response to their SOLD OUT Lincoln Hall concert, ARCA’s program director wrote:”Superlatives seem inadequate to describe TAKE3 trio’s performance for Allegheny RiverStone Center for the Arts. Words used by the multiple-standing-ovation audience to describe the experience were ‘Magnificent – Moving – WOW – What Virtuosity – Awesome Show…’ TAKE3 had us in the palm of their hands from Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” that brought tears to the eyes of many in the audience. A Night to be Remembered!”
