Summary

What's the best age to start learning an instrument? Can you make kids musical? And what kind of vajazzle would the host of the BBC Proms go for? Answering all these questions is Clemency Burton-Hill!

She tells us all about her love of music, which covers everything from Back and Mendelssohn to Take That and UK garage. We talk about her brilliant book, Year of Wonder, which recommends a piece of classical music to listen to every day.

Year of Wonder is out now, and comes highly recommended - we love it. You can follow Clemency on Twitter @clemencybh.

The Scummy Mummies book is also OUT NOW! We hope you like it, and if you do, we'd love an Amazon review!
