(12/13)
The third and last of the 2023 Counterpoint semi-finals comes from MediaCityUk in Salford and features the remaining three heat winners from this year's tournament. With a place in next week's Final at stake, the competition is bound to be tough. Paul Gambaccini's questions range across all genres and eras of music, from the Pet Shop Boys to the operas of Philip Glass, from Wagner and Tchaikovsky to Motown and Philadelphia soul.

Appearing today are:
Charles Dusting from Worcester,
Diane Hallagan from Leeds,
Sally Wilson from Sale in Greater Manchester.

As well as general musical knowledge they'll also each be tested on a special musical topic they'll have to pick from a list, with no warning of the categories on offer today.
