trio
Three performing together
A trio is a group of three.
In music, a trio is a composition for three performers or the performers themselves: a jazz trio, a piano trio.
The word extends to any threesome: The trio of friends traveled together every summer.
A trio suggests a unit—three things or people functioning together rather than merely counted.
