I've finally made good progress on figuring out iMovie. Will be sharing the slideshow virtually with Mum on Saturday, people still have about 48 hours to get photos to me but I have a ton of great ones, including from her sister, nieces and nephews in Poland. She'll be so surprised and excited!
I'm looking for some upbeat but kind of calm background music. Mum will be 89, and I don't want any lyrics competing with the messages she'll be reading on the screen (I asked people to photograph themselves with homemade signs).
Any suggestions? I've looked around a bit online and am drawing a blank...

I have found Paul Cardall through Instagram and he is an American pianist that plays nice background music.

Call me crazy, but I love the music from the Bridgestone series. There is classic music and modern songs played on orchestral instruments. It’s really great music, doesn’t have lyrics to compete with reading, and is upbeat. Check it out!
This album has a good mix of the classics and the modern songs all redone. (It won’t post the direct link, but it’s the cover with the backs of their hands touching.)

Have you heard of The Piano Guys? They do beautiful remixes of popular songs. I love their music-many have no vocals. Piano + cello= absolutely lovely.
