Because we’re all about that bass, bout that bass, no treble – quite literally, in this episode of Symphony Uncensored!

Apart from a blocked nose (oops!), Amanda is joined with co-host, and her better half, Croatian music producer and artist Oliver Mando. From the classical music genres, to the pop music scene, we scramble to figure out what BASS lines are like, WHY we need them, and what they mean in our music.

PS. We’re still looking for help to fill in a TOTO bet slip… Any volunteers?

Have you ever left the house to run errands, only to leave your furry friend home alone? So to help lessen the “guilt”, you put on some music - whether it's rock, pop, or classical, hoping to give them some "company"? But how do we know if our pets even appreciate the music we're playing them? Or if they like music at all?

Find out more in "Musical Furry Friends", where Amanda is joined by her youngest co-host of the season, Nicola Chotrani, a violinist who's recently moved to the UK!

Musical Furry Friends

Have you ever sung in choir or try to sing along at karaoke, and realise you're super out of tune? Or... maybe you're finding it difficult to identify pitch? Has someone ever told you you're "tone deaf"? But after all this, you still have a burning passion to learn a music instrument? 

Amanda (who's got perfect pitch), together with her cello student and co-host Jessica Kang (who was ONCE tone deaf), explore what it means to be "tone deaf", if it's something that can be fixed, and how to cope with tone deafness while learning a music instrument.
