Counterpoint Series 36
Episode 3 of 13

Paul Gambaccini asks questions on music of all genres and eras, in the nationwide quiz.

(3/13)
Three more music lovers join Paul Gambaccini for another contest of musical knowledge, spanning music of all ages and genres. The competitors today will have to demonstrate their knowledge of everything from Schubert and Purcell to Prince and Massive Attack, with plenty of extracts to identify and some long-buried musical memories.

As well as being asked general knowledge music questions, the three competitors will each have to choose a special musical topic for their own individual round - with no warning of the subject choices and no chance to prepare.

Taking part are:
Shanine Salmon from Croydon
Ian Sanders from Gloucestershire
George Spann from Solihull.

Assistant Producer: Stephen Garner
Producer: Paul Bajoria
