Take a musical journey from Bach to ABBA—and far beyond—as the genre-defying TAKE3 returns to Lincoln Hall on Friday, October 9 at 7:30 PM with new music, thrilling arrangements and the electrifying artistry that has repeatedly brought Foxburg audiences to their feet.

Returning by popular demand after multiple standing ovations in Lincoln Hall, TAKE3 will bring audiences the concert experience they love—newly energized with exciting repertoire, including the trio’s showstopping, internationally award-winning reimagining of ABBA’s “Waterloo.”

Led by dazzling violinist Lindsay Deutsch, TAKE3 travels freely across musical worlds—from classical masterworks to the music of ABBA, the Beatles, Elvis, Elton John and John Williams—transforming familiar music into something fresh, surprising and spectacular.

Joining Deutsch will be French American cellist Georgia Bourderionnet and, in her first Lincoln Hall appearance, pianist Alexa Constantine.

Adult tickets are $30, $5 for students and ARCA’s Member discount is $25. Buy tickets at alleghenyriverstone.org. Call for Reservations: 724-659-3153 paying by cash or check at the door.

ARCA is grateful to Red Brick Gallery founder and botanical artist Donna Edmonds and her husband, Larry, for generously sponsoring TAKE3’s return to Lincoln Hall.

Where Art and Pop Collide

TAKE3 completely dismantles the borders between genres. Recognized as pioneers in the crossover/pop space, this vocal and instrumental trio seamlessly weaves the structural refinement of classical masterpieces with the infectious energy of pop and rock swagger.

Their signature "Where Rock Meets Bach" program is much more than a collection of crossover arrangements. It is an exhilarating musical journey across generations, styles and emotions—performed with breathtaking technique, fierce energy, wit and an easy camaraderie that draws audiences into the experience.

From music that makes audiences want to clap and move to moments of tenderness and deep expression, TAKE3 brings both virtuosity and heart to the stage.

Their arrangements cross genres and generations but never sacrifice musicianship or emotional expression for spectacle. The result is sophisticated enough for devoted classical listeners, immediately welcoming to popular-music audiences and joyous entertainment for the entire family.

“These talented artists are more than great entertainers—they bring deep expression through their infectious music and connect emotionally with audiences,” said Connie Kleppe, president of the Fallbrook Music Society. “TAKE3 is known for its unmistakable style, joy in music-making and down-to-earth stage personalities.”

New for 2026: Award-Winning “Waterloo”

Among the new highlights of TAKE3’s Lincoln Hall concert will be the trio’s high-octane reimagining of ABBA’s “Waterloo.” Directed by Christopher M. Allport, the exuberant “Waterloo” music video has earned international recognition, including a Palma di Eccellenza Award and Best Pop Music Video at the Los Angeles Short Film Festival.

TAKE3’s electrifying treatment captures the infectious joy of ABBA’s classic song while giving it the trio’s own unmistakable musical personality - making this music that audiences already know, feel newly alive.

Inspiring multiple standing ovations, TAKE3 has developed a special connection with Foxburg audiences through its previous performances for ARCA. TAKE3 also made a lasting impression on students and teachers during its 2023 Educational ArtReach residency at Allegheny-Clarion Valley Schools.

TAKE3 was created by violinist and vocalist Lindsay Deutsch, who has appeared around the world as Yanni’s featured violin soloist. Deutsch began her career as a classical soloist, performing concertos with orchestras across the country. Her performances can be heard in Netflix’s popular series The Witcher and on its Sony soundtrack, which reached number one on You are why The Exposé is still herethe Billboard charts and has received millions of streams worldwide. Deutsch performs on an 1845 Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume violin.

French American cellist Georgia Bourderionnet has performed throughout the United States and France, as well as in Germany, Canada and South Korea. She made her solo debut at age 15 with the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra and returned two years later to perform the first movement of Dvoøák’s Cello Concerto. She holds degrees from the Eastman School of Music and the Manhattan School of Music.

Making her first Lincoln Hall appearance with TAKE3, Los Angeles-based pianist Alexa Constantine performs internationally with the trio. A graduate of UCLA, Constantine subsequently served as a staff pianist at the university, working primarily with the studio of internationally acclaimed trumpeter Jens Lindemann.

Experience an exhilarating musical journey with these three remarkable musicians combining their world-class classical training with uninhibited stage presence, warmth and infectious joy in making music - on Friday, October 9 at 7:30 PM in Lincoln Hall, Foxburg.
