As to what music I would suggest: There was a very moving tribute posted long ago on politicsandprotest.com that used Enya's _We are the dead_ to incredibly good effect. I wouldn't use that of course, it's been done.

I found the juxtaposition of the National Anthem, a stirring and powerful piece of martial music, with pictures of a stunning attack on one of our largest cities very disturbing. Imagine the same music to video of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Something a bit more somber and dignified would seem more appropriate. Regards,
