Benefactors will also be invited to a special post-performance reception with artists at the Series’ opening event on October 12, 2025.


Guest artists: TIME FOR THREE

Grammy- and Emmy-winning ensemble Time For Three (TF3) defies conventions with their genre-bending excellence. Comprised of Charles Yang (violin, vocals), Nicolas Kendall (violin, vocals), and Ranaan Meyer (double bass, vocals), the uniqueness of the trio’s instrumentation well matches their sound, which blends eras, styles, and traditions from classical to Americana to singer-songwriter. TF3’s collaborations with Pulitzer Prize winners Jennifer Higdon and Kevin Puts resulted in the Grammy Award-winning album, “Letters for the Future,” conducted by Xian Zhang and featuring the Philadelphia Orchestra. Their charismatic performances on major stages, frequent collaborations with acclaimed artists like Ben Folds and Arlo Guthrie, and commitment both on and offstage to encouraging the next generation of musicians, all showcase Time for Three’s unwavering dedication to pushing creative boundaries and captivating audiences worldwide.

Time for Three will also perform with mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato on the Harriman-Jewell Series at the Folly Theater on February 14, 2026. Read more about that event here.


Please join us on Monday, September 29, 2025 for Prelude Season 61!
