Counterpoint Series 35
Episode 9 of 13

Three competitors join Paul Gambaccini for radio's toughest music quiz, covering all genres and aspects of music.

Competitors from the West Midlands and the north of England face Paul Gambaccini's questions in the last of the 2022 heats, recorded at MediaCityUK in Salford. The winner will take the sole remaining spot in the semi-final line-up. To do so they'll need to prove the breadth of their musical knowledge, with Dizzy Gillespie, Puccini, Radiohead, Blondie, Shostakovich and R.E.M. all in the mix. The competitors will also be asked to choose a musical category or theme on which to answer an individual round, with no warning of what the choice of topics is going to be.

Taking part are:
Darren Dutton from Worksop
Mohan Mudigonda from Wolverhampton
Joanna Munro from Liverpool.

Producer: Paul Bajoria
Assistant Producer: Stephen Garner
