personnel :
Oscar Peterson — piano
To celebrate the marriage of Prince Charles and Lady Di of England,
Oscar Peterson composed a ten-song suite that he performs on this
album while accompanied by an unidentified string orchestra
arranged by Rick Wilkins. Not too surprisingly Peterson (who
doubles here on electric piano) proves to be a talented composer
and, even if none of the individual pieces caught on (or was ever
apparently recorded again by the pianist), the music on a whole is
quite satisfying. — Scott Yanow
