They have at least one CD on Naxos (about $6) that is really good.

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 ;-) Tina Tina Manley, ASMP www.tinamanley.com _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
