Paul Gambaccini chairs the general knowledge music quiz.

Paul Gambaccini welcomes three competitors from the north of England to the wide-ranging music quiz.

(6/13)
There must be something musical in the water in West Yorkshire, because that's where all three of today's Counterpoint competitors hail from. Paul Gambaccini is in Salford for the latest contest, putting them through their paces on every aspect of music from Wagner and Verdi to Bruce Springsteen and Bowie.

As always, they'll be tested on the range of their general musical knowledge, as well as having to select an unseen musical special subject on which to answer their own individual questions - with no prior warning of the categories.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.
