A new season of the widest-ranging music quiz on radio gets under way, as Paul Gambaccini welcomes the first three of this year's 27 contenders hoping to prove they are the nation's musical mastermind.

Paul's questions cover every genre and will test the contenders' knowledge of the classical repertoire as well as jazz, musicals, classic rock and 70 years of the charts. In the special round they will each have to choose a musical category on which to answer their own questions, with no prior warning of the topics.

Taking part are:
Yvonne Blair from Glasgow
Antony Fish from Pontypool
Isabella Valentini from Brentwood in Essex.
