Håkan,
You can add as many date ranges as you need:

Select t1.id,
sum(case when t2.date between d1 and d2 then 1 else 0
end) as sum1,
sum(case when t2.date between d3 and d4 then 1 else 0
end) as sum2
sum(case when t3.date between d1 and d2 then 1 else 0
end) as sum3,
sum(case when t3.date between d3 and d4 then 1 else 0
end) as sum4
from t1, t2, t3
where t1.id=t2.id and t2.id = t3.id
group by t1.id

If you know the ID, you can modify slightly:

Select
sum(case when t2.date between d1 and d2 then 1 else 0
end) as sum1,
sum(case when t2.date between d3 and d4 then 1 else 0
end) as sum2
sum(case when t3.date between d1 and d2 then 1 else 0
end) as sum3,
sum(case when t3.date between d3 and d4 then 1 else 0
end) as sum4
from t2, t3
where t2.id = t3.id
and t2.id = 123456
