Florida Orchestra Offers Thanksgiving Weekend Concerts; Holiday Gift Passes On Sale Now E-mail
Friday, 28 November 2008

“Time For Three — Fiddles On Fire” are featured in the Thanksgiving weekend Raymond James Pops Concerts presented by The Florida Orchestra.

After turkey and football, it is an ideal way to spend Thanksgiving weekend with family and friends.
Members of Time for Three are all in their 20s and recent graduates of the Curtis Institute of Music.

They are Zach DePue and Nick Kendall on violin, and Ranaan Meyer on double bass, performing locally on Thanksgiving weekend. They share infectious joy in the music they play; it is obvious whether it’s jazz, bluegrass, folk, classics, gypsy or pop.

The program will also include some orchestra standards, all of which show the orchestra’s own fiery fiddle sections.

Actor Paul Newman said of Time for Three, “To hear these three young guys is to be thankful that music was invented… If I had been able to create a sound like these kids a few years back, I might have thought twice about going into acting!”

Time for Three will perform:
·     Friday, Nov. 28, 8 p.m., Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center, Ferguson Hall, Tampa
·     Saturday, Nov. 29, 8 p.m., Progress Energy Center for the Arts – Mahaffey Theatre, St. Petersburg
·     Sunday, Nov. 30, 7:30 p.m., Ruth Eckerd Hall, Clearwater

Tickets start at $19 for the general public and are only $10 for students:

Call 727-892-3337 or 1-800-662-7286, Monday – Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. or on line at www.floridaorchestra.org.

Also, consider giving the gift of music: Florida Orchestra Flex Passes as Holiday Gifts.
Flex passes for the remainder of The Florida Orchestra’s 2008-2009 season are on sale. Each ticket voucher can be exchanged for any of the Masterworks, Pops and Coffee series concerts and Specials including Pink Floyd…

The cost is $50 each IN PACKAGES OF SIX (minimum of six must be purchased). They make great gifts, and can be redeemed by mail, fax, in person or by phone. They may be exchanged for any A, B, C or D price seat in advance. For more information, visit www.floridaorchestra.org.
