The Final, 2022

Counterpoint Series 35
Episode 13 of 13

The music quiz reaches its climax as Paul Gambaccini is joined by the three finalists aiming to take home the 2022 Counterpoint trophy.

(13/13)
The three competitors who've won their way through the heats and semi-finals of the 2022 tournament line up to face Paul Gambaccini's questions for the last time this year, in a bid to become the 35th Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Counterpoint champion.

Dvorak and Liszt line up alongside Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark and the Beatles, in the unpredictable array of questions facing the Finalists this year. Breadth of knowledge of musical eras and genres counts for a lot, but speed on the buzzer can also be crucial when the stakes are so high. All of our Finalists have proved they know their music, so who will triumph on the day? After a series when the overall standard has been so impressive, a close and hard-fought Final is guaranteed.
