Pop quiz - which of these famous musicians hails from Salford?
A) Russell Watson
B) Bernard Sumner
C) Shaun Ryder
D) Elkie Brookes
Answer? All of them. Salford's long been a magnet for musicians, with Morrissey recognising the city's iconic status as far back as the 80s (imagine!) when he chose Salford Lads Club to feature on The Queen is Dead album. The city's musical links are set to continue with the new relationship between BBC Philharmonic and Salford looking forward to making beautiful music together.
