LUG -

One of the hardest things I have to do is figure out what music fits with 
the slide shows that I put together for Dimes for Hunger.  We have 
experimented with spoken sound tracks and just music and have decided that 
just music is a better background for the photographs.  Every year I try to 
find one recording that is about 10-12 minutes long that will fit the 
format of the show.  It should be fairly smooth, without a lot of 
interruptions. For example, I've used the themes from Platoon and 
Schindler's List.  Both of those had the audience in tears, which is not a 
bad thing when you are trying to raise money.  If anybody has any 
suggestions for similarly moving, long, and emotional musical themes, I 
would really appreciate it.

All of the photos in the slide show will have been made with Leica lenses ;-)
