I find the music you used for this presentation beautifully haunting. Where did you find it?

[lostsplendour]

@rhrful It's Isfahan by ES Posthumus. You can find the song on the album Unearthed

@lostsplendour Thank you for your quick response. I play this music incessantly as I view the photos of the Romanovs of Nicholas II - the family of 6 murdered in the Bolshevek Revolution. I find the combination incredibly moving. Thank you so much again.

@rhrful You're welcome. Maybe you can make a video with this music.
