Counterpoint Series 38
Episode 9 of 13

Paul Gambaccini asks questions on music of all varieties and eras, in the quiz for music lovers from around the UK.

(9/13)
Paul Gambaccini puts the questions to three more competitors in the last of the 2025 heats. Today's winner will take the one remaining place in the semi-finals. To get there they'll have to demonstrate the breadth of their musical knowledge, and will also have to choose a category on which to answer specialist questions, without the slightest inkling of what subjects are going to be offered.

The programme was recorded at the headquarters of the 蜜芽传媒 Philharmonic, at Media City in Salford.

Taking part are:
Joe Andrew, from Stoke on Trent
Christine Harrison, from Bury in Lancashire
Sarah Trevarthen, from Manchester.

Counterpoint is a 蜜芽传媒 Studios Audio production.

Assistant Producer: Stephen Garner
Producer: Paul Bajoria
