Number of musicians in a trio (5)

I believe the answer is:

three

(Other definitions for three that I've seen before include "So many 12s today" , "Sixth root of seven hundred and twenty nine" , "Number of strikes before you're out" , "Number of times N appears in this completed grid" , "Number constituting a crowd?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
