Music notes: If you would like to have background music playing during the video DVD Slideshow we have some royalty free music that may be added to the presentation. Some clients choose not to have background music, they feel music can become outdated & prefer to play their own selections at home during the Slideshow so this is optional. If no music CDs are sent, then no music will be added.
