Hi-
I asked a question quite awhile ago about software for slideshows and received some excellent advice (as always!!). Thank you!
I bought ProShow Gold and have had success with it. However, when showing a slideshow, I use a live pianist. Now, I would like to add music to post to Facebook and my website.
I am creating a show in memory of someone. I am wanting to create a slide show in their memory to coincide with an exhibit. Since some people may not be able to make the exhibit, I thought I would mirror it in ProShow Gold and post to my website or Facebook.
Any suggestions on music sources? Need about an hour of classical and/or hymns. Of course, for the posting it'll be brief.
The local library used to loan out music cds, including classical music. Don't know anything about how you download the music onto the Pro Show Gold program. Just know that this was a good source of classical music without buying it.

Music is copyrighted just like your photos. Attaching it to a slideshow on the web without permission is a 'no-no'. There are sources for royalty free music. Just do a Google search and you'll find several sources.

Perhaps a recording of your pianist, with permission to use it.

Thanks for your suggestions. I thought about using my pianist, but lack a place to record her. I'll google for royalty-free music. Thanks.
