THE methodist church is gearing up for its next Music Festival.

It will see hundreds of young musicians competing in dozens of classes.

Last year's festival was the biggest yet and organisers are hoping it will keep growing.

This year's judges will include Christina Thompson, who has spent much of career in Germany as a horn player. Since 1984, Ms Thompson has played with chamber orchestras and taught at Harrow and the Purcell School.
