Digging deep into music that matters

Huw has handpicked music old and new, and we dig into how the music we love is made with the help of our resident expert Sophie Daniels in another edition of 6 Musicology.

Huw soundtracks the end of the day and the start of your evening with handpicked music old and new.

We celebrate how the music we love is made with the help of Professor Sophie Daniel in 6Musicology - and it's all about alternative Christmas music today! Also, we test your music knowledge in another edition of the Music Quiz Generator, where one of you might win a Music Sounds Better With Huw pin badge. And Huw declares that your evening has begun with the Home Run playlist at 5 o'clock.
