trio

nom

1. 1

   A group of three people or things.

   I gave a yell for assistance, landed the leader one in the eye and backed into my tent for a weapon. By the time I was out again our fellows were running up, but the precious trio had disappeared.

   I'm cooking crab cakes with arugula and mayonnaise, griddled lamb with rosemary potatoes and buttered spinach, then a trio of desserts.

   These are exciting times for England and particularly for this group. Six of this side won the Under-17s European Championship in 2014 and the attacking trio from Everton and Liverpool – Ademola Lookman, Dominic Solanke and Calvert-Lewin – had an excellent tournament.

2. 2

   A group of three musicians.

   Mr. Cleaver latched on to the idea, and within moments, the trio was swinging hard over a walking bass line — the equivalent of a blurred picture coming into unequivocal focus.

3. 3

   A piece of music written for three musicians.

   I love his music, but it is a bit disconcerting to realize that you could die in extreme old age and still only be familiar with a mere handful of the baryton trios.

   Despite their opus number, the Fantasiestücke were composed in 1842, the same year as the Piano Quartet and Quintet, and five years before the first two of the piano trios (the third followed in 1852).

4. 4

   A passage in the middle of a minuet, frequently in a different key.

5. 5

   Any cocktail made with a spirit, a liqueur, and a creamy ingredient.

6. 6

   Synonym of three-in-one (“type of fast food”).

7. 7

   Synonym of tierce.

   Carrados ought to have won the point and divided tricks, leaving his opponent a minor quart and a solitary trio—about 15 on the hand. By a careless discard he threw away both chances and the final score stood at 205-112.
